Kuniholm and Nicole Riches 2004 update The Scotida Section of Grammos Forest, 40km from Kastoria, 10-12km from Kotilli, and very near the frontier with Albania and Serbia, is a westward-facing scree slope down at an angle of 30-50 degrees below the rim of the escarpment at 40 20'N and 21 0'E on the headwaters of the Sarandaporos River which springs from the same mountain source as the Haliakmon River. Altitude is 1500m. The Scotida samples, 10 of Abies cephalonica and 27 of Pinus nigra were collected in two visits, on 20 August 1979 and 29 July 2004. Cores are stored at: B48 Goldwin Smith Hall Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14853 Reference: Dasika Chronika (March 1982); "Dating in the Aegean Region," Mitt.
