1 I have suggested tentatively (Macedonia, Thrace, Illyria, p. 46), that this name, otherwise inexplicable, preserves that of Brasidas the Spartan.

2 Heuzey (Mission, p. II) is one of the few travellers in Macedonia to give even a mention of this castle. But he strangely refers to it as Eski-Kavalla. I can find no record of any sort for it ever having borne this name. On the other hand the village known as Eski-Kavalla is situated a few miles north of Kavalla. See Svoronos, Hellénisme dans la Macédoine, p. 71, who follows the cartographer Chrysochoos. Modern maps in general place it in the same region, the Greek General Staff Map placing it near the hamlet of Korzou just east of the Kavalla-Doxato road.
