ΗΡΑΚΛΕΙΑ ΛΥΓΚΗΣΤΙΚΗ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΦΛΩΡΙΝΑ
The chief town of the province of Upper Macedonia, called Lyncestis,
at a distance of 46 M. P. from Lychnidus and 64 M. P. from Edessa. According to
the proportional distances, Heracleia stood not far from the modern town of Filurina,
at about 10 geog. miles direct to the S. of Bitolia, nearly in the centre of the
Egnatian Way. Calvinus narrowly escaped being intercepted by, the Pompeians on
his rear, after having fallen back upon Heracleia, which Caesar (B.C. iii. 79)
rightly places at the foot of the Candavian mountains, though his transcribers
have interpolated the passage, and confounded it with the Heracleia Sintica of
Thracian Macedonia. The writer of a geographical fragment has identified this
city with Pelagonia, but incorrectly.
