There is some difficulty in prescribing the exact bouhda: ries of the country properly called Greece. Formerly itin cluded Macedonia, Peloponnesus, the Ionian Islands, Crete, and a part Of what is now called Albania. D'anville seems to have included under the title of Greece Proper, only the territory lying between Macedonia on the north, the Gulf of Corinth on the south, the Ionian sea on the west, and the Archipelago on the east. Within these boundaries are in cluded Thessaly and Epirus'on the north, together with all the territory now known under the names Of Eastern and Western Hellas, extending south as far as the Gulf of Le panto, formerly called the Gulf of Corinth, and including Athens and N egropont, the latter formerly known by the name of Euboea. The territory south of the Gulf Of Lepan to, consisting of the provinces Of Laconia, Messenia, Argo lis, Achaia, Elis, and Arcadia, composed the Peloponnesus. In modern Maps, and in the books Of modern travellers, this territory is known under the general name Of Morea.
