A city in Macedonia near Amphipolis which in the 5th century BC was considered a colony of Andros, probably founded in the 7th century BC, around 655. It stood on a hill 4 km from the river Strymon. The houses lay on the south side, the oldest dating from the 6th century BC, and the cemetery on the east side. Some stretches of wall have been identified near the coast. According to the excavators, the city flourished in the 6th and 5th centuries BC and ceased to exist in the 3rd century BC.
