The part of Arcadia that lies next to the Argive land is occupied by Tegeans and Mantineans, who with the rest of the Arcadians inhabit the interior of the Peloponnesus . The first people within the peninsula are the Corinthians, living on the Isthmus, and their neighbors on the side sea-wards are the Epidaurians. Along Epidaurus , Troezen , and Nermion, come the Argolic Gulf and the coast of Argolis ; next to Argolis come the vassals of Lacedaemon , and these border on Messenia , which comes down to the sea at Mothone, Pylus and Cyparissiae.
