Eupalium

Eupalium^[1] or Eupalion (Ancient Greek: Εὐπάλιον),^[2] or Eupolium or Eupolion (Εὐπόλιον),^[3] or Eupalia^[4] (Εὐπαλία)^[5] was one of the chief towns of Ozolian Locris, situated near the sea, and between Naupactus and Oeantheia.^[2] It was the place chosen by Demosthenes for the deposit of his plunder, in 426 BCE; and it was shortly afterwards taken by Eurylochus, the Spartan commander, along with Oeneon.^[3] After the time of Alexander the Great, Eupalium fell into the hands of the Aetolians; and Philip V of Macedon, when he made a descent upon the Aetolian coast in 207 BCE, landed at Erythrae, which is described by Livy as near Eupalium.^[1] This Erythrae was probably the port of Eupalium.

Eupalium's site is located near Kastro Soule.^[6][7]
