ΦΥΛΑΚΗ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΑΛΜΥΡΟΣ
Phulake: Eth. Phulakesios. A town of Phthiotis in Thessaly, one of
the places subject to Protesilaus, and frequently mentioned in the Homeric poems.
(Il. ii. 695, xiii. 696, xv. 335, Od. xi. 290; comp. Apoll. Rhod. i. 45; Steph.
B. s. v.) It contained a temple of Protesilaus. (Pind. Isthm. i. 84.) Pliny erroneously
calls it a town of Magnesia (iv. 9. s. 16). Strabo describes it as standing between
Pharsalus and Phthiotic Thebes, at the distance of about 100 stadia from the latter
(ix. pp. 433, 435). Leake places it at about 40 minutes from Ghidek, in the descent
from a pass, where there are remains of an ancient town. The situation near the
entrance of a pass is well suited to the name of Phylace.
