In ancient Greek culture, a song, poem, or musical composition belonging to or representative of a specific place or region.
From Greek epi- (upon) + chōra (place, country) + -ion (neuter noun ending). The term describes artistic works tied to particular geographical or cultural locations.
Greek regions weren't united by a government like modern nations are—they were united by shared cultural products like epichorions. A region's songs traveled and spread its reputation far more effectively than armies could.
