The ruins above water

The Underwater Ruins of Dyspontion was the submerged part of the ruined town founded by the perioikoi, non-citizen inhabitants of Sparta, located in the Forgotten Swamps of Elis, Greece. Connected to them was the non-submerged part of the ruins.

Located by the mountainous route between the Sanctuary of Olympia and Elis City, the community was known for joining Pisa in a revolt against Elis in 570 BCE. As a consequence, the community was destroyed and abandoned.[1]

More than 100 years later the site was visited by the Spartan misthios Kassandra during the Peloponnesian War.[1]
