πόλις δὲ ἦσαν καὶ οἱ Τρικόλωνοί ποτε· μένει δὲ αὐτόθι καὶ ἐς ἡμᾶς ἔτι ἐπὶ λόφου Ποσειδῶνος ἱερὸν καὶ ἄγαλμα τετράγωνον, καὶ δένδρων περὶ τὸ ἱερόν ἐστιν ἄλσος.
The sentence has three main clauses; the first is elliptical/predicative with plural verb agreement despite singular πόλις, and the final clause uses a copular predication with a genitive modifier phrase.
