Ancient Tithorea

Amfikleia-Elateia Municipality, Greece

Tithorea (Ancient Greek: Τιθορέα, Τιθοραία, Τιθόρα, or Τιθόρρα) was a city in ancient Phocis, the successor settlement to Neon. Whether Tithorea occupied the same, or a nearby spot, to Neon is a matter of some doubt. Pausanias regards Tithorea as situated on the same site as Neon; and relates that Tithorea was the name anciently applied to the whole district, and that when the inhabitants of the neighbouring villages were collected in the city, the name of Tithorea was substituted for that of Neon.
