Storia
Phare or Pharis (Φᾶρις), afterwards called Pharae (Φαραί), was a town of Laconia in the Spartan plain, situated upon the road from Amyclae to the sea. It was mentioned in the Catalog of ships in the Iliad, and was one of the ancient Achaean towns. It maintained its independence till the reign of Teleclus, king of Sparta; and, after its conquest, continued to be a Lacedaemonian town under the name of Pharae. It was said to have been plundered by Aristomenes in the Second Messenian War. It is also mentioned in a corrupt passage of Strabo, and by other ancient writers.
