Pausanias VIII 23, 6f.:
About a stade distant from Caphyae is a place called Condylea, where there are a grove and a temple of Artemis called of old Condyleatis. They say that the name of the goddess was changed for the following reason.

Some children, the number of whom is not recorded, while playing about the sanctuary found a rope, and tying it round the neck of the image said that Artemis was being strangled. [παιδία περὶ τὸ ἱερὸν παίζοντα - ἀριθμὸν δὲ αὐτῶν οὐ μνημονεύουσιν - ἐπέτυχε καλῳδίῳ, δήσαντα δὲ τὸ καλῴδιον τοῦ ἀγάλματος περὶ τὸν τράχηλον ἐπέλεγεν ὡς ἀπάγχοιτο ἡ Ἄρτεμις.]

The Caphyans, detecting what the children had done, stoned them to death. When they had done this, a malady befell their women, whose babies were stillborn, until the Pythian priestess bade them bury the children, and sacrifice to them every year as sacrifice is made to heroes, because they had been wrongly put to death.

The Caphyans still obey this oracle, and call the goddess at Condyleae, as they say the oracle has bade them, the Strangled Lady [Ἀπαγχομένη] from that day to this.
