Isthmia (ancient city) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Isthmia (ancient city)
Isthmia is an ancient city located on the Isthmus of Corinth in Greece. It is well known for being home to the Isthmian Games and is also the site of major Greek monuments, such as the Temple of Isthmia that honors the Greek God, Poseidon.〔Irving, Jenni. "Isthmia." Ancient History Encyclopedia. N.p., 28 Apr. 2011. Web. 26 Oct. 2014〕 ==Location== The city of Isthmia is located on the main road that connected Athens and Corinth 〔Gregory, Timothy. "The Sanctuary of Poseidon at Isthmia." OSU Excavations at Isthmia. The Ohio State University. Web. 20 Oct. 2014.〕 in the ancient world. This made it an easy stop for many travelers and therefore a logical geographic choice for the Panhellenic Games and monumental religious sanctuaries. Its location on the Isthmus and major ports created huge traffic through the city and established Isthmia as the hub for athletic and religious festivals; second in significance only to those at Olympia.〔
