37.68°N 23.96°E Atene (Greek: Ἀτήνη) was a coastal (paralia) deme of Attica, belonging to the Antiochis tribe (phyle), with three representatives in the Boule.[1]
It bordered Anaphlystus to the north and Amphitrope in the east,[1] in what is now the southern part of Saronikos municipality.
It had an area of about 20 km2, including the valleys of Charaka, Hagia Photini and Thimari as well as Gaidouronisi.[1]
The area had been mostly uninhabited prior to the 5th century BC. The first epigraphic mention of Atene dates to 432 BC.[1]
It prospered during the 5th to 4th centuries BC, with a dispersed settlement pattern,[2] but was depopulated in the 3rd century BC, probably in the wake of the Chremonidean War.
