Strabo Geography 8.3.32

[32] Salmone is situated near the spring of that name from which flows the Enipeus River. The river empties into the Alpheius, and is now called the Barnichius. ¹ It is said that Tyro fell in love with Enipeus: ^{2 3} For there, it is said, her father Salmoneus reigned, just as Euripides also says in his Aeolus. ⁴ Some write the name of the river in Thessaly “Eniseus”; it flows from Mount Othrys, and receives the Apidanus, which flows down out of Pharsalus. ⁵ Near Salmone is Heracleia, which is also one of the eight cities; it is about forty stadia distant from Olympia and is situated on the Cytherius River, where is the temple of the Ioniades Nymphs, who have been believed to cure diseases with their waters. ⁶ Near Olympia is Arpina, ⁷ also one of the eight cities, through which ⁸ flows the River Parthenias, ⁹ on the road that leads up to Pheraea. Pheraea is in Arcadia, and it is situated above Dymaea and Buprasium and Elis, that is, to the north of Pisatis ¹⁰ Here, too, is Cicysium, one of the eight cities; and also Dyspontium, which is situated in a plain and on the road that leads from Elis to Olympia; but it was destroyed, and most of its inhabitants emigrated to Epidamnus and Apollonia. Pholoe, an Arcadian mountain, is also situated above Olympia, and very close to it, so that its foothills are in Pisatis. Both the whole of Pisatis and most parts of Triphylia border on Arcadia; and on this account most of the Pylian districts mentioned in the Catalogue ¹¹ are thought to be Arcadian; the well-informed, however, deny this, for they say that the Erymanthus, one of the rivers that empty into the Alpheius, forms a boundary of Arcadia and that the districts in question are situated outside that river. ¹²
