Шаблон:Short description

Eva or Eua (Шаблон:Lang-el) was an ancient settlement in Arcadia in the Peloponnese, Greece. It is mentioned as a village by Pausanias[1] and its name is also attested by archaeological findings. It is located in the valley of the river Tanos (ancient Tanaos), below the north-eastern slopes of the Parnon mountain range, between the modern towns of Astros and Kato Doliana. It is close to the site of the Byzantine Monastery of Loukou.

Pausanias says that in Eva there was a hieron (sanctuary) of the physician Polemocrates which is believed to be occupied today by the nearby monastery.

Excavations in 1980 revealed the ruins of the villa of Herodes Atticus (2nd century AD). Spectacular finds came to light, among them mosaics, inscriptions, statues and other works of art.[2] In Pausanias, there is no account of this magnificent villa, possibly because he had not visited the area.
