A POLIS on the southern bank of the Spercheius River in Malis, exact location unknown (BA 55 C3; Müller I, 304), and not to be confused with the better‐attested Anticyra in PHOCIS which does not appear in the Histories. Herodotus describes Anticyra as the first city on the MALIAN GULF when one is traveling from Achaea (Phthiotis) into Malis. The Persians’ route led them through here on their way to TRACHIS in 480 BCE (7.198.2). EPHIALTES, who betrayed the Greeks at THERMOPYLAE, was later killed at Anticyra (7.213.2).
