Sicyon/Demetrias — by G. Reger — last modified Nov 15, 2023 02:15 PM

Sicyon/Demetrias was an important ancient city of the Corinthiad, located some 26 km to the west of Corinth. The city had a long history, beginning in the Archaic period when Orthagorid tyrants ruled it. It flourished in later Archaic and Classical times, was a member of the Peloponnesian League, and became a center of Theban power after 371 B.C. The city was long noted for its association with fine arts and during the fourth century B.C. produced the famous sculptor Lysippos. Under Aratos, Sicyon joined the Achaean League in 251 B.C. By the time Pausanias visited the site, declining political fortunes and disastrous earthquakes had reduced it to a ruinous state.

Pausanias tells us that the ancient settlement of Side was named for a daughter of Danaus and implies its location to have been somewhere on the Malea peninsula of mainland Greece, perhaps in the vicinity of Boiai (modern Neapoli Vion). Camp (BAtlas 58) tentatively places it at modern Velanidia.
