The (Northern) Sporades (; (ギリシア語:Βόρειες Σποράδες)) are an archipelago along the east coast of Greece, northeast of the island of Euboea,〔"Skyros - Britannica Concise" (description), Britannica Concise, 2006, webpage: (EB-Skyros ) notes "including Skiathos, Skopelos, Skyros, and Alonnisos."〕 in the Aegean Sea. They consists of 24 islands, four of which are permanently inhabited: Alonnisos, Skiathos, Skopelos and Skyros.〔 They may also be referred to as the Thessalian Sporades (Θεσσαλικές Σποράδες). ==Etymology== "Sporades" means "those scattered" (compare with "sporadic"), and was used from Classical Antiquity to refer to the Aegean island groups outside the central archipelago of the Cyclades. In modern geographical parlance, there are five different Sporades groups: * Thessalian Sporades (Θεσσαλικές Σποράδες) or Northern Sporades. Since ca. 1960, the term "Sporades" refers mainly to these islands: * *Skopelos * *Alonnisos * *Skiathos * *Kyra Panagia * *Peristera * *Gioura * *Skantzoura * *Piperi * *Tsougria * Thracian Sporades (Θρακικές Σποράδες): Thasos, Samothrace, Imbros, Lemnos and Agios Efstratios * Western Sporades (Δυτικές Σποράδες): Salamis, Aigina, Poros, Hydra, Spetses, and the other islands of the Saronic Gulf and the Myrtoan Sea. * Eastern Sporades (Ανατολικές Σποράδες), i.e. the islands of the eastern and northeastern Aegean, neighbouring the coast of Asia Minor : Samos, Ikaria, Lesbos, Chios, Tenedos, Psara, Oinousses and smaller island groups * Southern Sporades (Νότιες Σποράδες), i.e. the Dodecanese, to which group Samos and Ikaria are sometimes appended. 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「Sporades」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
