    Consider any labels currently on the map placeholders. Are you just very familiar with the region or do you know a good resource/map for the Aegean Sea? Unfortunately I know next to nothing about this region or it's history. So I'm hoping someone here might be able to guide me when it comes to certain names/borders.

    It can be tricky finding good labelled maps of Ancient Greece with the historical names, particularly of the water ways.

    Here's three I've found though, which I am pretty sure have the ancient names:
