At the Kiveri village's southern border, where the orchards of the rivers floodplain end, a large submarine coastal Karst spring (Greek: Καρστική πηγή) was walled to catch the sweet water for irrigating its orchards and those of the large Coastal Plain of Argos. The sweet water comes subsurface from the mountainous area of Lake Stymphalia and Tripoli (Arkadia), where it drained through katavothres (Greek: καταβόθρές). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiveri
