Lilea ( Greek Λιλαία ( f. Sg. )) Is a local community in the Parnassos district of the Greek municipality of Delfi . The place is located in the Kifisos plain at the foot of the Parnassus and has 332 inhabitants. Until 1920 the place was called Kato Agoriani in Greek Κάτω Αγόριανη . After that it was named after the ancient Lilaia , the ruins of which are located about a kilometer to the southeast. The springs of Kifisos are also located near the place.
In October 1943, ELAS freedom fighters brought an injured American pilot to Lilea. German troops therefore committed a heavy retaliatory strike. They burned 150 of the 160 houses and executed 11 civilians.
