Cf. Strabo 443 εἰς Ἰπνοὺς τόπον τραχὺν τῶν περὶ τὸ Πήλιον . . . τραχὺς δ᾽ ἐστὶν παράπλους πᾶς τοῦ Πηλίου ὅσον σταδίων ὀγδοήκοντα: τοσοῦτος δ᾽ ἐστὶ καὶ τοιοῦτος τῆς Ὄσσης. μεταξὺ δὲ κόλπος σταδίων πλειόνων διακοσίων ἐν Μελίβοια. Ipni is directly under Pelion, Meliboea, a considerable city (Hom. Il. ii. 717) in a shallow bay (Strabo) at the foot of Ossa (Liv. xliv. 13). It is proved by inscriptions to be Thanatu, where there is a long stretch of beach (J. H. S. xxviii. 210).
