From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lycuria or Lykouria (Ancient Greek: Λυκουρία) was a village in ancient Arcadia, which marked the boundaries of the Pheneatae, and Cleitorii.[1]

Its site is tentatively located near the modern Lykouria,[2][3] which was renamed to reflect association with the ancient town.
