Melanippos' Camp

Melanippos' Camp was an Ancient Greek bandit camp located among Mycenaean ruins on the eastern shore of Lake Kopais in Boeotia, Greece. The camp was named for Melanippus, a Boeotian defender of Thebes who fought the "Seven Against Thebes", and, in 427 BC, the mercenary Kassandra killed the bandits and freed Galeos' imprisoned slaves as a favor to her friend Hippocrates.
