[2] More recently Campora San Giovanni, a town near the mouth of the Savuto, has been considered as a more precise location.
The archeologist Gioacchino Francesco La Torre excavated a temple outside the town in the early 2000s, which was within the territory of Temesa.
Based on the coins La Torre concludes that Locri's invasion did not result in the conquest of Temesa, but De Sensi Sestito disagrees with this conclusion.
She thinks an unsuccessful invasion would not have explained the failure to rebuild the excavated temple or the larger decline of Temesa and its eclipse by Terina.
This suggests that Croton continued to recognize and validate Temesa's coinage, but that it did not exercise control over the city itself.
The Hero was driven out and sank in the depths of the sea, Euthymus got married and Temesa was freed from the ghost forever.
Possibly the expulsion of the hero by the Locrian Euthymus served to express the conquest of the city by Locri.
