Lyrceia or Lyrkeia (Ancient Greek: ἡ Λύρκεια), or Lyrceium or Lyrkeion (Λυρκεῖον), was a town in ancient Argolis, distant 60 stadia (a little less than 7 miles) from Argos, and 60 stadia from Orneae, and situated on the road Climax, which proceeded from the gate of Deiras and ran from Argos in a northwesterly direction along the bed of the Inachus. The town is said to have been originally called Lynceia, and to have obtained this name from Lynceus, who fled hither when all his other brothers, the sons of Aegyptus, were murdered by the daughters of Danaus on their wedding night. He gave intelligence of his safe arrival in this place to his faithful wife Hypermnestra, by holding up a torch; and she in like manner informed him of her safety by raising a torch from Larissa, the citadel of Argo

| - Lirceia o Lircèon (en llatí Lyrceia o Lyrceium, en grec antic Λύρκεια o Λυρκεῖον) era una ciutat d'Argeia, a l'Argòlida, a 60 estadis al nord-oest d'Argos i a 60 estadis d'Òrnees. La ciutat s'hauria dit originalment Lincea, nom que derivaria de Linceu, que s'hi va refugiar quan els seus germans, els fills d'Egipte van ser tots morts per les filles de Dànau durant la seva nit de bodes. Va donar constància de la seva arribada al lloc a la seva fidel esposa Hipermnestra encenent una torxa, i ella va informar de la seva seguretat encenent-ne una altra des de la ciutadella de Larissa a Argos. Després el nom es va canviar en honor de Lircos, un fill d'Abant. (ca)

- Lirceo o Lircea (en griego antiguo, Λύρκεια) es el nombre de una ciudad griega antigua de Argólide. Distaba 60 estadios de Argos y la misma distancia hasta Orneas. Al principio se llamó Lincea, porque allí llegó Linceo; pero tras residir en ella Lirco, de él tomó el nombre. Según Pausanias, la ciudad ya estaba abandonada en tiempos de la guerra de Troya. Estrabón, sin embargo, dice que era una aldea y que se hallaba al lado del monte homónimo. Piérart sugiere que pudo ser una polis dependiente. (es)

Després el nom es va canviar en honor de Lircos, un fill d'Abant. Era en runes al temps de Pausànias. Aquestes runes encara es poden veure a un turó a l'esquerra del riu Ínac, a poca distància de Sterma, al camí d'Argos. De la ciutat en parla Apol·lodor, a més de Pausànias i Estrabó. (ca)

Su localización es dudosa, puesto que se han sugerido varios emplazamientos diferentes en el valle del Ínaco. (es)
