Stephanos of Byzantium - Ethnika
Aineia: a place of Thrace, as 'Aipeia' Zeleia, from Aineias. Theon calls it Aineiadai, commenting on Lykophron: "Aineias after the sack of Ilion came to Thrace and founded a city Aineiadai, where he buried his father". The ethnonym Aineieus. Which is also anomalous, in that it is not one syllable short of the primitive, as we said under Ailia. There is also Aineates, as 'Korseia' 'Korseates', Hydreia 'Hydreates', Orneiai 'Orneates', Kenchreiai Kenchreates, the 'i' being suppressed. There is also a city of Tyrrhenia, whose inhabitants are Aineioi.

Βυζάντεια ἡ χώρα. Αἴνεια τόπος Θρᾴκης ἀπὸ Αἰνείου.

Αἰνία δὲ διὰ τοῦ 'ι' πόλις Περραιβῶν. Αἴπεια πόλις Λακωνικῆς «καλήν τ´ Αἴπειαν καὶ Πήδασον» (Il. Ι 152). ἔστι καὶ ἑτέρα Κύπρου. τρίτη Κρήτης ὡς Ἑλλάνικος.
