ARNAE

ARNAE (Ἀρναί), a town in the Macedonian Chalcidice, a day's march from Aulon and Bromiscus; but its site is uncertain. (Thuc. 4.103.) Leake supposes Arnae to be the same as the place called Calarna by Stephanus (s. v. Κάλαρνα), the existence of which near this part of the coast is shown by the name Turris Calarnaea, which Mela (2.3) mentions as between the Strymon and the harbour Caprus. (Leake, Northern Greece, vol. iii. p. 170.)
