Nauplia

（Ναυπλία). The port of Argos, situated on the Saronic Gulf. It was never a place of importance in antiquity, but is at the present day one of the chief commercial centres of Greece, with handsome buildings, and still retaining its ancient name. The name of Nauplius, its alleged founder, and his sons Oeax (steersman) and Nausimedon (shipmaster), prove its early maritime importance. See Nauplius.
