自中全新世以来,来自伯罗奔尼撒半岛西部伊利斯的阿尔斐俄斯河的沉积物被沿岸的水流夹带并沉积形成屏障、沿海泻湖和周边沼泽。三次大规模的泥沙潮形成了一系列的障壁岛链。Kleidhi(古Arene)遗址,沿着以前的海边战略通道,和Epitlum(荷马的Thryon)遗址,建在Alpheios河口的一个岬角上,现在分别位于内陆1公里和5公里处,其他古代遗址也受到类似的影响。佩尼厄斯河的改道导致了三角洲侵蚀和退积的循环,这些循环既掩埋又侵蚀了考古遗址。今天,埃利斯岛的海岸变化仍在继续,造成了侵蚀和沉积。
Since the mid-Holocene epoch, sediments from the Alpheios River in Elis, in the western Peloponnese, have been entrained in littoral currents and deposited to form barriers, coastal lagoons, and peripheral marshes. Three major surges of sediment formed a series of barrier-island chains. The sites of Kleidhi (ancient Arene), along a former strategic pass by the sea, and Epitalion (Homeric Thryon), built on a headland at the mouth of the Alpheios River, now lie 1 and 5 km inland, respectively, and other ancient sites have been similarly affected. Diversion of the Peneus River has led to cycles of delta progradation and retrogradation that have both buried and eroded archaeological sites. Coastal changes continue in Elis today, resulting in areas of both erosion and deposition.
