Segesta

Segesta was a domestic core of a Elymian people, located in a northwestern partial of Sicily, in what are right away a range of Trapani as well as a comune of Calatafimi-Segesta.
According to a tradition used in Virgil's Aeneid, Segesta was founded jointly by a territorial king Acestes (who was son of a internal stream Crinisus by a Dardanian woman named Segesta or Egesta) as well as by those of Aeneas' folk who wished to sojourn behind with Acestes to found a city of Acesta.
The belief that a name of a city was originally Acesta or Egesta as well as changed to Segesta by a Romans to equivocate its ill-omened definition in Latin is disproved by coins display that Segesta was indeed a progressing name.
Segesta (Egesta to a Greeks) was one of a vital cities of a Elymian people, one of a three indigenous peoples of Sicily. The alternative vital cities of a Elymians were Eryx as well as Entella.
The race of Segesta was mixed Elymian as well as Ionian Greek, though a Elymians soon Hellenized as well as took on external characteristics of Greek life. Wikipedia
