1 The high place on which stood most of the altars of the Tegeates was called after
Zeus KXdpLos (Paus. 8. 53. 9 f. cited supra p. 874 n. 2). Sir J. G. Frazer and H. Hitzig—
H. Blumner ad loc. identify this eminence with the hill of St Sostis. See further supra
p. 807 n. 2.

3 Zeus"TipiffTos (supra p. 878 n. o no. (3)).
4 Apesas (Phoukd) is a mountain which rises north of Nemea to a height of 873™. It
figured in two distinct myths. On the one hand, Perseus here sacrificed for the first time
to Zeus 'Aireaavnos (Paus. 2. 15. 3 Kal opos 'ATricras icrriv virep tt)v ~Sep.eav, ivda Ylepuea

an eagle perched upon it (Rasche Lex. Num. Suppl. i. 1836 Septimius Severus, Brit.
