  1. References

Aipy or Aepy ({{lang-grc|Αἶπυ}}) was a city in ancient Elis, Greece.[1] It was one of the oldest towns in Elis, mentioned by Homer in the Catalogue of Ships in Iliad, as one of the territories ruled by Nestor.[2] Homer uses the expression "ἐΰκτιτον Αίπυ" (ἐΰκτιτον means "well-built" and Αίπυ, the town's name, means "steep").[3] It is also quoted in the Homeric Hymn to Apollo.[4] There are those who believe that the name corresponds to the toponym A-pu2 cited in tablets in Linear B.[5]

Its location is a mystery, which has occupied minds since at least the time of Strabo, who commented it could be considered that Aipy should be identified with a city called Margana or with a natural bastion located near Makistos.[6] It may the same as the later Epeium, a town of Triphylia, which was located on a mountain, between Macistus and Heraea.[1] The site of Epeium is tentatively identified with a site near Tripiti.[7][8] Others suggest that Aipy was the later Typaneae, and locate its site between the present villages Platiana and Makistos (both in the municipal unit of Skillounta), where a wall of the ancient acropolis survives into the present, together with a theatre and an agora (market), now entirely in ruins.[9]
