The municipality of Temenion disappears
30 December 1840 (18 December 1840 old style) Disputed
According to the official register of administrative changes, Temenion was merged into the municipality of Argos in December 1840. Yet newspapers still speak of "the municipality of Temenion" in 1841 and 1845. By 1864 at the latest Myloi was "a village of the municipality of Argos".
Note: Possibly the decree took effect only later, or the old name stayed in use. The decree of 1840 itself has not been checked.
