The temple of Apollo Epikourios stands at a height of 1130 m on Mount Kotilio, 14 km south of Andritsaina. At this site, which was called Bassai (little valleys) in antiquity, the inhabitants of nearby Phigaleia founded a sanctuary of Apollo Bassitas in the 7th c. BC, where they worshipped the god with the epithet Epikourios-supporter in war or illness.
