Map of Ancient Achaea

Aegae or Aigai (Шаблон:Lang-grc[1]), also known as Aega or Aiga (Αἰγά), was a town and polis (city-state) of ancient Achaea, and one of the 12 Achaean cities.[2][3] It was situated upon the river Crathis and upon the coast, between Aegeira and Bura.[4]

One of the mentions of Aegae in Homer's Iliad points to this town.[5][2]Шаблон:Refn

It was afterwards deserted by its inhabitants, who removed to the neighbouring town of Aegeira; and it had already ceased to be one of the 12 Achaean cities on the renewal of the Achaean League in 280 BCE, its place being occupied by Ceryneia.[2][6] Its name does not occur in Polybius.[2] Neither Strabo nor Pausanias mention on which bank of the Crathis it stood, but it probably stood on the left bank, since the right is low and often inundated.[2][7][4]

Its site is located near the modern Akrata.[2][8][9] The location of the ancient city has been excavated.[10]
