Epirote Islands are considered those northern Ionian islands that are in proximity to the Epirus mainland. These include: *Kerkyra (Κέρκυρα) usually known as Corfu in English *Paxi (Παξοί) (includes Antipaxos) also known as Paxos in English *Lefkada (Λευκάδα) also known as Lefkas in English *Ithaki (Ιθάκη) usually known as Ithaca (the island of Odysseus) in English ==Legend== According to legend, the Epirote Islands were ruled by the descendants of Neoptolemus (or Pyrrhus), who came there, defeating the native Molossoi, after the events of the Trojan War. The island of Ithaki was also the legendary home of Odysseus, though he was exiled by Neoptolemus after the slaughter of Penelope's suitors in the Odyssey. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Epirot Islands」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
