Historical background
THESSALY - PHALANNA
(4th - 3rd century BC)
Phalanna (Perrhaebia) was located about ten kilometers from Larissa on the left bank of the Peneios. Originally occupied by the Perrhaebi, the territory extended between Mount Olympus and Peneios. The coinage is small and seems to have been struck between 400 and 344 BC..
