History

Irakleia was named after Heracleia, a town of the ancient Eleans, located about 50 stadia (9 km) from Olympia and near the river Kytheros. It had a spring and a sanctuary of the Ionides: the nymphs Calliphaea, Synallasia, Pegaea and Iasis. It was believed that the spring water cured all sorts of aches and pains.[3][4]
