The ancient Dorian city east of the Isthmus of Korinth (Corinth) on the coast of the Saronic Gulf.
The name, Megara, might be rendered as The Temples; originally known as Nisa, the city dates back to before the seventh century BCE and has a long history of colonization; after repeated disputes with Athens, the city lost its independence and, due to its crucial geographic location, the control of the city was in constant dispute.
