ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΙ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΚΑΒΑΛΑ
Gangas, Gangites (Gangas, Gangites, Appian, B.C. iv. 106), a river
of Macedonia, which takes its rise at and flows round Philippi; after its confluence
with the Zygactes the united streams bore the name of the Angites (Anghista),
which was so called from the branch at Philippi. (Leake, Northern Greece, vol.
iii. p. 225.) It was by this river side (Acts, xvi. 13), the fountains of which
gave the name to the city, before the time of Philip of Macedon -Crenides, the
Place of Fountains,- that the Proseucha was situated (in consequence of the ablutions
which were connected with the worship) in which the Gospel was first preached
within the limits of Europe. (Comp. Coneybeare and Howson, Life and Epistles of
St. Paul, vol. i. p. 316.)
