Azenia (Attica)
Azenia (Ancient Greek: Ἀζηνία) was a deme of ancient Athens between Anaphlystus and Sunium.[1][2]
It was probably situated in the bay of which Sunium forms the eastern cape. Opposite this bay is a small island, now called Patroklos (or Gaidouronisi), formerly the Island or Rampart of Patroclus (Πατρόκλου χάραξ or νῆσος), because a fortress was built upon it by Patroclus, who commanded on one occasion the ships of Ptolemy Philadelphus.[1][3][4]
