Modern Description: This site named by Herodotus is associated by modern scholars with a series of sea caves on the rugged coast of Pelion. This location is reachable from the remote village of Veneto (1 hour drive from Volos or Stefanovikeio) , and then, following a 5 km off-road trail, the Koulouri locality at the seaside, from which, if you have a boat, you can go to Ipnoi, known to the locals as "spilies" (the caves). The place is also reachable by boat from Keramidi village. On the hill above are traces of a (medieval) fortification, hence the local name Paliokastro. Info courtesy of Dr. Kostas Karatzas.
