Stymphalus
Stymphalus was a city in north-eastern Arcadia. Stymphalus was founded by Stymphalus, son of Elatus and Laodice. Stymphalus successfully resisted Pelops and his Pisan army, until he was treacherously murdered by Pelops during a truce. Stymphalus was succeeded by his two sons, Agamedes and Gortys.
The city was located near the lake that was once infested by the Stymphalian birds. Heracles drove the birds away from Lake Stymphalus as one of his labours.
