The region was called Peralia
-
and the people who were in the faction were called Peralioi.
-
Modern scholars identify the peralia
-
with the southern tip of Attica,
-
starting some distance up from Sunium
-
on the west coast carrying a little bit around to the east coast,
-
and that was a region that was dominated
-
by that family I mentioned to your earlier,
-
the family that was held responsible for the killing of the supporters of Cylon,
-
that family were the Alcmaeonidae
-
and their leading figure, at the moment we're talking about,
-
was a man called Megacles,
