History
Crenae or Krenai was a town in ancient Acarnania, where the Acarnanians on their march to protect of Amphilochian Argos took up position prior to the Battle of Olpae; Eurylochus, with the Peloponnesian forces, had marched through Acarnania, and had succeeded in joining the Ambraciots at Olpae, passing unperceived between Argos and the Acarnanian force at Crenae.
