NOTE

1.  For more see Robert Buck [1979], A History of Boeotia, 18: "About four kilometres southeast of Pyle (formerly Derbenosialesi) a fort lies above the town of Kavasala. It is thought to be Eteonus-Scarphe by some and Panakton by others. Recent studies indicate that it is Boeotian, but its name is unknown. Drymus is the latest suggestion." Kavasala/Prasino is F6298 and Pyle/Dervenosialesi is F6299.
