On the Mysteries
A place associated with the civil struggles following the rule of the Thirty.
Then the Thirty came into power, and there followed the occupation of Phyle and Munychia, and those terrible struggles which I am loath to recall either to myself or to you.
Stromata
Athenian hill/harbor district where the guiding fire that led Thrasybulus's men vanished at the altar of Apollo the Light-bearer.
To Thrasybulus, by night, when the weather had become moonless and stormy, a fire was seen going before, which, having conducted them without stumbling along Munychia, vanished where now the altar of the Light-bearer is.
On the Estate of Philoctemon
Athenian harbor where Phanostratus's ship lay at anchor when Euctemon deposited his document with Pythodorus.
Phanostratus was on the point of setting out with Timotheus in command of a trireme, and his ship lying at anchor at Munychia, and his brother-in-law Chaereas was there bidding him farewell.
