Halieis

Halieis (Ancient Greek: Ἁλιεῖς),[1] or Halice or Halike (Ἁλίκη),[2] or Halia (Ἁλία),[3] or Alycus or Alykos (Ἄλυκος),[4] or Haliai (Ἁλιαί),[5] was a port town of Hermionis, in ancient Argolis at the mouth of the Argolic Gulf.

[7] The Tirynthians and Hermionians took refuge at Halieis when they were expelled from their own cities by the Argives.

[8] This town was taken about Olympiad 80 (c. 460 BCE) by Aneristus, the son of Sperthias, and made subject to Sparta.

[12] The town was no longer inhabited in the time of Pausanias, and its position is not fixed by that writer.

He only says that, seven stadia from Hermione, the road from Halice separated from that to Mases, and that the former led between the mountains Pron and Coccygius, of which the ancient name was Thornax.
