Caenepolis or Kainepolis (Ancient Greek: Καινήπολις, lit. 'new town'), also called Caene or Kaine (Καινή), was a town of ancient Laconia north of the Cape Taenarum. It is probably the same town as mentioned by Strabo under the corrupt form Cinaedium or Kinaidion (Κιναίδιον). It contained a temple of Demeter and another of Aphrodite, the latter near the sea.

  • Taenabum era una antiga ciutat de Lacònia situada a uns 40 estadis (7 km) al nord de l'istme de la península Taenaria, posteriorment anomenada Cainèpolis (Καινήπολις, nova ciutat). Segons Pausànies tenia un temple de Demèter i un altre d'Afrodita, aquest darrer prop del mar, amb una estàtua de la deessa. També hi ha restes de marbres i relleus del temps dels Antonins. Avui és la ciutat de Kypàrisso. La ciutat va formar part de la confederació de ciutats eleutero-lacònies. Per unes inscripcions que s'han trobat, es creu que els laconis que vivien a la costa van unir-se per fundar un temple dedicat a Posidó i de pas van refundar la ciutat donant-li el nom de Ciutat Nova ("Cainèpolis"). Aquest nom no va arrelar. (ca)

  • Caenepolis or Kainepolis (Ancient Greek: Καινήπολις, lit. 'new town'), also called Caene or Kaine (Καινή), was a town of ancient Laconia north of the Cape Taenarum. It is probably the same town as mentioned by Strabo under the corrupt form Cinaedium or Kinaidion (Κιναίδιον). It contained a temple of Demeter and another of Aphrodite, the latter near the sea. The modern village of Kyparissos stands on the site of this town. Some ancient remains and inscriptions of the time of the Antonines and their successors have been found here. On the door-posts of a small ruined church are two inscribed quadrangular στῆλαι, decorated with mouldings above and below. One of the inscriptions is a decree of the Taenarians, and the other is by the community of the Eleuthero-Lacones (τὸ κοινὸν τῶν Ἐλευθερολακώνων). We have the testimony of Pausanias that Caenepolis was one of the Eleuthero-Laconian cities; and it would appear from the above-mentioned inscription that the maritime Laconians, when they were delivered from the Spartan yoke, formed a confederation and founded as their capital a city in the neighbourhood of the revered sanctuary of Poseidon. The place was called the New Town (Caenepolis); probably as a successor settlement to Taenarum. (en)
