Ancient Greek City Names
 

Does anyone know somewhere I can get a list of ancient greek cities? I'd like to feed them into my name generator.

Thanks!

Edit: I'm looking for a list online. I can look at names on maps and in books, but that's a lot harder to feed into a name generator without a bunch of typing.

How many do you want?

We could just make a list right here, I'm sure the EN World community could create one easily.

Are you interested in the Hellenic Era, Mycenaen, Hellenistic, or the Minoans (or a combination?)

Are you including colonies not on traditional greek territory?

I'll start (this is just from memory)

Athens
Sparta
Corinth
Thebes
Pireaus
Syracuse
Odessa
Anapa (a former Greek colony in southern Russia)
Neopolis

Max,

I do not know if this will meet your needs, but you might wish to try The Perseus Digital Library, a great resource on Ancient Greece and other topics.

Basically, I'm interested in collecting as many as possible to give the name generator as much of a sample as possible. I'm not terribly picky where they come from.

I couldn't find any online sources, so here's a list of a hundred or so from a couple books I have:
