|Lokris|, |Lokri| |Opuntii,| |Lokris,| |Greece,| |c.| |387| |-| |369| |B.C.|, Due to the proximity of the mountains to the coast there was no room for considerable rivers in Lokris. The largest, only a mountain torrent, is the Boagrius, also called also Manes by Strabo, rising in Mount Cnemis, and flowing into the sea between Scarpheia and Thronium. The only other river mentioned by name is the Platanius, a small stream, which flows into the Opuntian gulf near the Boeotian frontier; it is the river which flows from the modern village of Proskyna.
