About: Proschium

An Entity of Type: SpatialThing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Proschium or Proschion (Ancient Greek: Πρόσχιον) was a town of ancient Aetolia, between the Achelous and the Evenus. It is said to have been founded by the Aeolians when they removed from the Homeric Pylene higher up into the country. Proschium also laid claim to high antiquity, since it possessed a shrine said to have been dedicated by Heracles to his cupbearer Cyathus, whom he had unintentionally slain. It is clear, from a narrative of Thucydides, that Proschium lay west of Calydon and Pleuron, and at no great distance from the Achelous.

dbo:abstract
  • Pròsquion (en llatí Proschium, en grec antic Πρόσνιον) era una ciutat d'Etòlia situada entre els rius Aquelou i Evenos. La van fundar els eolis quan van marxar de la ciutat homèrica de Pilene, que era a la part més elevada del país. Pròsquion reivindicava la seva antiguitat, i explicava que tenia un santuari que Hèracles va dedicar al seu coper Ciatos a qui havia mort sense voler. Segons Tucídides la ciutat es trobava a l'oest de Calidó i Pleuró i a no gaire distància del riu Aquelou. (ca)
