ΕΡΕΤΡΙΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΦΑΡΣΑΛΑ
A town of Thessaly, in the district Phthiotis, near Pharsalus. It
was here that Quintius Flamininus halted at the end of the first day's march from
Pherae towards Scotussa, in B.C. 197. Leake places it at the village of Tjangli,
where he found the ruined walls of an ancient city. A long and narrow table-summit
formed the citadel, of which the lower courses of the walls still exist in their
whole circuit. The town walls are still better preserved, and are extant in some
parts on the eastern side to the height of 18 or 20 feet. Here also are two door-ways
still perfect.
