    • 1995, Barry Smart, Michel Foucault, pages 68–69:
      Whether of time, value, the subject, etc., the axiom and the myth of a real or possible accumulation govern us everywhere, although we know that nothing is ever amassed and that stockpiles are self-consuming, like modern megapoleis, or like overloaded memories.
    • 2004, French Institute of Pondicherry, Activity Report 2004, page 26:
      The theme “Integration of Indian territory” focuses on the dynamics of the Indian megapoleis and of secondary metropolises and medium-sized and small towns.
    • 2006, Glenn R. Bugh, The Cambridge Companion to the Hellenistic World, page 68:
      The changes just outlined in two “megapoleis” are mirrored in large and small towns across the Greek world, from Massilia to Marakanda.
