Xypete

Xypete (Ancient Greek: Ξυπέτη or Ξυπετῆ), also Xypeteum or Xypeteon (Ξυπετεών),[1] was said to have been likewise called Troja (Τροία), because Teucrus led from hence an Attic colony into Phrygia,[2][1][3] was a deme of ancient Attica. It was apparently near Peiraeeus or Phalerum, since Xypete, Peiraeeus, Phalerum, and Thymoetadae formed the τετράκωμοι,[4] which had a temple of Heracles in common (τετράκωμον Ἡρακλεῖον).[5] The site of Xypete is tentatively located northeast of Peiraieus.[6][7]
