FTP, what is the name of these cities, the latter of which was the subject of a mythical attack by seven Greek leaders?
One city of this name was described by Homer as "the Hundred Gated", and stood on the site of modern Al-Uqsur. In Strabo's time it was reduced to a small village, but earlier had served as the Egyptian capital during the 11th dynasty. The one in Boeotia was famous for the seven gates supposedly built using the music of Amphion, and in 336 it was sacked by Alexander the Great, who famously ordered that only the House of Pindar be left standing.
