NOTE

1. Site contributed by Professor Sarah Murray of the University of Toronto. The location of Passaron, 'the capital of the Molossians', is controversial. Most scholars associate it with this hill. For more see Douzougli and Papadopoulos [2011], p. 2, n. 13 et passim. Also p. 12, n. 88. And see Hammond [1967] 181-2 for a description.
