The bit about Ikralia being the same place as Trachis seems wrong. Look at this map: http://plato-dialogues.org/tools/greece.htm

And then when you look at Ikralia, Greece in Google Earth, it is clearly in the far north of Greece, by the Macedonian/Bulgarian borders.

The real location of Trachis seems to be just west of the western tip of the island of Euboea. I am going to update it. Joey 03:05, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Trakai is the ancient capital of Lithuania and in Lithuanian language 'trakas' means the place in the middle of the forest with the trees cut or burned —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.151.173.120 (talk) 23:10, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They don't sound similar and why do you believe that the Mycenean city of Trachis would have anything to do with the Midieval Lithuanian city of Trakai?

According to some other sources, Trachis was around Karakolithos. Text is in Greek. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.6.56.130 (talk) 14:46, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
