As you go down to the land of Elis from Heraea , at a distance of about fifteen stades from Heraea you will cross the Ladon , and from it to the Erymanthus is a journey of roughly twenty stades. The boundary between Heraea and the land of Elis is according to the Arcadians the Erymanthus, but the people of Elis say that the grave of Coroebus bounds their territory.
