Don't they all live in Lesbos?

ON Lesvos. It's an island.

Lesbos is another name for that same island

[–] Wizard_Pope 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

My point is rhey would live ON the island not inside of it.

Ah alright, the change from Lesbos to Lesvos took all my attention

[–] Wizard_Pope 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I stick with the modern greek transliteration. You are free to use Lesbos or Lesvos I don't care either way I am not even Greek.
