Updated from J.S. Traill: Demos and Trittys

On this map it is possible to click on the symbols for demes (colored circles, triangles, and squares) to go directly to Demes listed by phyle, where the evidence for the existence and location of every deme is listed. In the list of demes, clicking on "Map" will bring you back to this map. Note that the coordinates specified for each deme are based on a grid for the map of 0 to 1000 (south to north) by 0 to 750 (west to east) units. Thus Rhamnous (at the far NE of the map) has coordinates 950,650 (the north-south position is given first, then the west-east). The coordinates given for demes in the central Athens area are those of the inset, not of the main map, and are marked "inset" in the list of demes.
