Back in Achaea
View through CrossRef
Abstract
From this point to the end of the Acts, Andrew never leaves Achaea. After a few episodes in Patras (GE 22–24) he travels to Corinth (GE 25–27), Sparta (GE 28), Megara (GE 29), and returns to Patras (GE 30–33), where he will die. The Acts of Andrew thus conforms with Odyssey Books 13–24, which pertain entirely to Achaea. Books 13 and 14 take place in Ithaca, Book 15 moves to Sparta in order to bring Telemachus home via Pylos, and from the end of Book 15 to the end of the epic, the action occurs entirely in Ithaca.
