Adler number: pi,154
Translated headword: Panaktos, Panactus, Panakton, Panactum

A city between Attica and Boiotia.[1] Thucydides names the place in the neuter, but Menander in the masculine.[2]
Greek Original:
*pa/naktos: po/lis metacu\ th=s *)attikh=s kai\ th=s *boiwti/as. *qoukudi/dhs de\ kai\ ou)dete/rws kalei= to\ xwri/on, *me/nandros de\ a)rrenikw=s.
Notes:
From Harpokration s.v., commenting on Demosthenes 54.3 (web address 1) -- where the name is in the accusative case and its gender therefore indeterminable. The neuter version, Panakton, appears to be the more authentic.
