The southern side, as well the Acarnanian as the Aetolian, is washed by the sea, forming the Corinthian Gulf, into which the Achelous empties itself. This river (at its mouth) is the boundary of the Aetolian and the Acarnanian coast. The Achelous was formerly called Thoas. There is a river of this name near Dyme,B. vi .iii. c. § iii. 11. as we have said, and another near Lamia.B. ix. c. v. § 10. We have also said,B. viii. c. ii. § 3. that the mouth of this river is considered by some writers as the commencement of the Corinthian Gulf.
