NOTE

1.  Simpson [1981], 198, 'Yenadhi: Ayia Sotira' says " ... were reported "in localita imprecisata"" ...; it was conjectured later that this lay at Ayia Sotira about 4 km. to southwest of Yenadhi." The chapel of the Metamorfosi Sotiros (F2042) is located approximately 4100 m. southwest of Yenadhi by road. It is somewhat shorter in a straight line. I have used this chapel as the basis for placing my location mark.
