Dipaea

Southern Europe

Dipaea, also spelled Dipaia, was a town of ancient Arcadia in the district of Maenalia, in central Greece, through whose territory flowed the river now known as the Elissonas. Its inhabitants relocated to the newly founded city of Megalopolis in 371 BC, and the town is remembered chiefly for a battle fought in its vicinity between Sparta and the Arcadian states sometime between 479 and 464 BC. Its site has been located west of the modern village of Davia.
