Locris & Doris

There are two regions named Locris (Λοκρίς). East of Phocis and north of Boeotia, on the coast of Euboean Gulf, was Opuntian Locris. The most important city of Locris (Oportian) was Opus. The Ozolian Locris was located on the Gulf of Corinth, between Aetolia in the west and Phocis in the east. The most important city in Ozolian Locris was the seaport Naupactus.

Doris was a region north of Ozolian Locris and around the Parnassus. Dorus, son of Hellen, had migrated to this region, which was named after him. Doris was said to be the original home of the Dorians, who aided the Heraclids in migrating to the Peleponnesus several generations after the Trojan War.

No significant myths were associated within any of these regions, though the Lesser Ajax was a Locrian captain who was born in Naryx, and fought at Troy. Ajax's father Oileus was the king of Locris, who was also an Argonaut.
