ΦΑΡΚΑΔΩΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΡΙΚΑΛΑ
Pharkadon, Pharkedon; Eth. Pharkedonios. A city of Histiaeotis in Thessaly, situated
to the left of the Peneius, between Pelinnaeum and Atrax. It is probably represented
by the ruins situated upon the slope of the rocky height above Gritziano.
The Classical city has been identified with fortifications on an isolated hill above the modern town of Klokoto. The walls, of ashlar with some Byzantine repairs, circle the W and lower of two peaks. The line of the wall runs E along the saddle but turns S to the plain without enclosing the higher peak. The city presumably extended into the plain but has left no visible remains.
