Corcyra/Corfu was traditionally founded by Corinth in 734 B.C., before the Assyrian conquest of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. Reportedly the Corinthian colonists expelled earlier colonists from Eretria. Corcyra was the mother city of Epidamnus (Dyrrhachium). Thucydides deals at length with an incident at Epidamnus which contributed to the outbreak of the Peloponnesian War, but has to explain to his readers where Epidamnus is located.
