Passage 4.36.1
ἔστι δὲ ἐκ Μοθώνης ὁδὸς σταδίων μάλιστα ἑκατὸν ἐπὶ τὴν ἄκραν τὸ Κορυφάσιον· ἐπʼ αὐτῇ δὲ ἡ Πύλος κεῖται. ταύτην ᾤκισε Πύλος ὁ Κλήσωνος ἀγαγὼν ἐκ τῆς Μεγαρίδος τοὺς ἔχοντας τότε αὐτὴν Λέλεγας· καὶ τῆς μὲν οὐκ ὤνατο ὑπὸ Νηλέως καὶ τῶν ἐξ Ἰωλκοῦ Πελασγῶν ἐκβληθείς, ἀποχωρήσας δὲ ἐς τὴν ὅμορον ἔσχεν ἐνταῦθα Πύλον τὴν ἐν τῇ Ἠλείᾳ. Νηλεὺς δὲ βασιλεύσας ἐς τοσοῦτο προήγαγεν ἀξιώματος τὴν Πύλον ὡς καὶ Ὅμηρον ἐν τοῖς ἔπεσιν ἄστυ ἐπονομάσαι Νηλήιον.
From Mothone it is about a hundred stadia to the headland named Coryphasium. Upon this headland stands Pylos. This city was founded by Pylos, son of Cleson, who brought from Megaris the Leleges, who then inhabited it. However, he derived no benefit from this settlement, as he was driven out by Neleus and the Pelasgians who came from Iolcus. Departing, he occupied the nearby territory and established the Pylos that lies within Elis. Neleus became king and elevated Pylos to such a height of prestige that Homer himself calls the city "Neleian" in his poems.
