Zoetia

Megalopoli Municipality, Greece

Zoetia or Zoitia, or Zoetea or Zoitea, also known as Zoeteium or Zoiteion, was a town of ancient Arcadia, Greece, in the region of Eutresia. According to Greek mythology, the settlement was founded by Zoeteus, a son of Tricolonus, a relative of Lycaon. Paroreus (ὺ) the youngest son of Tricolonus founded the city of Paroria which was 10 stadia (1.8 km) from Zoetia. When Pausanias visited the city in the 2nd century, it was already abandoned. There remained a temple of Demeter and Artemis then. Its site is located near the modern Zoni.
