PSYCHIUM (
Ψύχιον,
Steph. B. sub voce Ptol. 3.17.4;
Ψύχεα, Stadiasm. Mar. Magn. p. 298, Hoffmann: Eth.
Ψυχιεύς), a town on the south coast of Crete, placed by Ptolemy between the mouths of the rivers Massalia and Electra, and by the Stadiasmus 12 stadia to the west of Sulia, a distance which agrees very well with the situation of
Kastri. (Pashley,
Crete, vol. i. p. 304.)
