text:
Phalanna, was a town and polis (city-state) of the Perrhaebi in ancient Thessaly, situated on the left bank of the Peneius, southwest of Gonnus. Strabo says that the Homeric Orthe became the acropolis of Phalanna; but in the lists of Pliny Orthe and Phalanna occur as two distinct towns. Phalanna was said to have derived its name from a daughter of Tyro. It was written Phalannus in Ephorus, and was called Hippia by Hecataeus of Miletus. Phalanna is mentioned by Livy as near Mylae and Gyrton durin
