sentences:  After the death of Hieron I and the expulsion of the colonists whom he had established at Catana (modern Catania), the latter withdrew to Inessa, a place of great natural strength, which they occupied, and transferred to it the name of Aetna, previously given by Hieron to his new colony at Catana.In consequence of this they continued to regard Hieron as their oekist or founder.The new name, however, appears not to have been universally adopted, and we find Thucydides at a later period still employing the old appellation of Inessa.
