Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Cave of Euripides is a narrow cave, approximately 47 meters deep with ten small chambers, on a hillside overlooking the Saronic Gulf in the area of Peristeria on the south coast of Salamis Island, Greece. Its name derives from its reputation since ancient times as the place where the playwright Euripides came to write his tragedies. The ancient authors Philochorus and Satyrus described Euripides as a misanthrope who avoided society by lurking in a cave. The second century Roman author Aulus Gellius claimed to have visited the "grim and gloomy cavern" during his visit to Athens (Attic Nights XV.20).

Summary from Ελληνικά / Modern Greek Wikipedia (elwiki)

Το Σπήλαιο Ευριπίδη είναι μια σπηλιά, περίπου 47 μέτρα βάθος με δέκα μικρά δωμάτια, πάνω σε έναν λόφο με θέα τον Κόλπο του Σαρωνικού, νότια της Σαλαμίνας. Το όνομά του προέρχεται από την φήμη που είχε αποκτήσει από τους αρχαίους χρόνους ως το μέρος όπου ο θεατρικός συγγραφέας Ευριπίδης ερχόταν για να γράψει τις τραγωδίες του. Οι αρχαίοι συγγραφείς Φιλόχορος και Σάτυρος περιέγραφαν τον Ευριπίδη ως μισάνθρωπο που απέφευγε την κοινωνία και παραμόνευε σε μια σπηλιά. Ο Ρωμαίος συγγραφέας του 2ου αιώνα Άυλος Γέλλιος ισχυρίστηκε ότι είχε επισκεφτεί την "απαίσια και ζοφερή σπηλιά" κατά την διάρκεια της επίσκεψής του στην Ελλάδα.
