Corseae

Southern Europe

Corseae, also spelled Korsiai, was a port town of ancient Boeotia in central Greece, on the Gulf of Corinth. The Roman writer Pliny the Elder distinguished it from a similarly named town, Corseia, in the western part of Boeotia, calling this one Thebae Corsicae for its proximity to Thebes.
