A city on the northern coast of the PELOPONNESE near the mouth of the CRATHIS RIVER (BA 58 C1; Müller I, 733; Paus. 8.15.9), one of the twelve CITIES/regions (merē) of the Achaeans. Herodotus names Aegae as one of the original twelve cities of the IONIANS, before they were forced to migrate to Asia Minor by the Achaeans (1.145). Aegae was abandoned and its population moved to neighboring AEGEIRA (Strabo 8.7.4/C386; Paus. 7.25.12) after c. 370 BCE.
