ὁδὸς δὲ ἐξ Αἰγείρας εὐθεῖα ἀπὸ τοῦ ἱεροῦ τοῦ Διὸς διά τε ὀρῶν καὶ ἀνάντης ἐστί· μῆκος μὲν οὖν τῆς ὁδοῦ τεσσαράκοντά εἰσι στάδιοι, ἄγει δὲ ἐς Φελλόην, πόλισμα οὐκ ἐπιφανές, †οὐδὲ ὡς ἀεὶ ᾠκεῖτο καὶ Ἰώνων ἔτι ἐχόντων τὴν γῆν. τὰ δὲ περὶ τὴν Φελλόην ἐς φυτείαν ἀμπέλων ἐστὶν ἐπιτήδεια· καὶ ὅσα πετρώδη τῆς χώρας, δρῦς τέ εἰσι καὶ θηρία, ἔλαφοι καὶ ὗς ἄγριοι·

There is a straight road from the sanctuary of Zeus at Aegeira, passing through the mountains and steep. It is forty stades long, and leads to Phelloe, an obscure town, which was not always inhabited even when the Ionians still occupied the land.¹ The district round Phelloe is well suited for the growth of the vine; the rocky parts are covered with oaks, the home of deer and wild boars.
