The River Iardanus or Iardanes (Ancient Greek: Ἰάρδανος or Ἰαρδάνης) denoted two or three small rivers in classical antiquity. An Iardanus in Elis is referred to in passing in Iliad (Book VII.135), where Nestor remembers Pylians and Arcadians gathered in fight by the rapid river Celadon under the walls of Pheia, and round about the waters of the river Iardanus. Strabo (VII.3.12) notes, in describing the coast of Elis "After Chelonatas comes the long sea-shore of the Pisatans; and then Cape Pheia. And there was also a small town called Pheia: 'beside the walls of Pheia, about the streams of Iardanus,' for there is also a small river near by. According to some, Pheia is the beginning of Pisatis."
