History
Described by N.G.L. Hammond writing for PECS as a fortified hill with a "circuit wall ca. 450 m long" near modern Voulista Panagia (Epirus, Greece), this site guarded a gorge leading into Central Epeiros. Hammond identified it with ancient Charadra, but Dakaris (whence BAtlas) prefers an identification with ancient Oropos.
