§9.5.19συνεχεῖς δὲ τῇ μερίδι ταύτῃ λέγονται οἱ ὑπὸ τῷ Πολυποίτῃ
οἳ δʼ Ἄργισσαν ἔχον καὶ Γυρτώνην ἐνέμοντο, Ὄρθην Ἠλώνην τε πόλιν τʼ Ὀλοοσσόνα λευκήν. ταύτην τὴν χώραν πρότερον μὲν ᾤκουν Περραιβοί, τὸ πρὸς θαλάττῃ μέρος νεμόμενοι καὶ τῷ Πηνειῷ μέχρι τῆς ἐκβολῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ Γυρτῶνος πόλεως Περραιβίδος.
And continuous with this portion are said to be those under Polypoetes: "And those who held Argissa and dwelt in Gyrtoned, and those who held Orthe and Elone, and the white city of Oloosson." This country was formerly inhabited by the Perrhaebians, who held the part near the sea and near the Peneus as far as its mouth and Gyrton, a Perrhaebian city.
εἶτα ταπεινώσαντες ἐκείνους Λαπίθαι κατέσχον αὐτοὶ τὰ χωρία, Ἰξίων καὶ ὁ υἱὸς Πειρίθους, ὃς καὶ τὸ Πήλιον κατεκτήσατο βιασάμενος τοὺς κατασχόντας Κενταύρους, ἄγριόν τι φῦλον.
Then the Lapiths, having humbled them, themselves occupied these places, Ixion and his son Pirithous, who also acquired Pelion by forcing out the Centaurs who occupied it, a wild race.
τούτους μὲν οὖν
ἐκ Πηλίου ὦσε καὶ Αἰθίκεσσι πέλασσε,
τοῖς δὲ Λαπίθαις τὰ πεδία παρέδωκε· τινὰ δʼ αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ Περραιβοὶ κατεῖχον, τὰ πρὸς τῷ Ὀλύμπῳ· ἔστι δʼ ὅπου καὶ ὅλοι ἀναμὶξ τοῖς Λαπίθαις ᾤκουν.
These indeed he "drove out of Pelion and made them approach the Aethices," and delivered the plains to the Lapiths; but some of these parts the Perrhaebians also held, namely those near Olympus; and in some places they lived mixed altogether with the Lapiths.
ἡ μὲν οὖν Ἄργισσα, ἡ νῦν Ἄργουρα, ἐπὶ τῷ Πηνειῷ κεῖται· ὑπέρκειται δʼ αὐτῆς Ἄτραξ ἐν τετταράκοντα σταδίοις, τῷ ποταμῷ πλησιάζουσα καὶ αὕτη· τὴν δʼ ἀνὰ μέσον ποταμίαν εἶχον Περραιβοί.
Argissa indeed, now called Argoura, lies on the Peneus; and above it at a distance of forty stadia lies Atrax, this city also being near the river; and the Perrhaebians held the river territory between them.
Ὄρθην δὲ τινὲς τὴν ἀκρόπολιν τῶν Φαλανναίων εἰρήκασιν· ἡ δὲ Φάλαννα Περραιβικὴ πόλις πρὸς τῷ Πηνειῷ πλησίον τῶν Τεμπῶν.
Some have said that Orthe is the acropolis of the Phalannaeans; and Phalanna is a Perrhaebian city near the Peneus close to Tempe.
οἱ μὲν οὖν Περραιβοὶ καταδυναστευθέντες ὑπὸ τῶν Λαπιθῶν εἰς τὴν ὀρεινὴν ἀπανέστησαν οἱ πλείους τὴν περὶ Πίνδον καὶ Ἀθαμᾶνας καὶ Δόλοπας, τὴν δὲ χώραν καὶ τοὺς ὑπολειφθέντας τῶν Περραιβῶν κατέσχον Λαρισαῖοι, πλησίον μὲν οἰκοῦντες τοῦ Πηνειοῦ, γειτνιῶντες δʼ ἐκείνοις, νεμόμενοι δὲ τὰ εὐδαιμονέστατα μέρη τῶν πεδίων, πλὴν εἴ τι σφόδρα κοῖλον πρὸς τῇ λίμνῃ τῇ Νεσσωνίδι, εἰς ἣν ὑπερκλύζων ὁ ποταμὸς ἀφῃρεῖτό τι τῆς ἀροσίμου τοὺς Λαρισαίους· ἀλλʼ ὕστερον παραχώμασιν ἐπηνώρθωσαν Λαρισαῖοι.
The Perrhaebians indeed, being dominated by the Lapiths, withdrew for the most part into the mountainous region around Pindus and the Athamanes and Dolopes, while the Larisaeans occupied the country and those of the Perrhaebians who were left behind; they dwelt near the Peneus, being neighbors to them, and held the most fertile parts of the plains, except for any very low-lying part near Lake Nessonis, into which the river, overflowing, used to deprive the Larisaeans of some of their arable land; but later the Larisaeans corrected this with embankments.
οὗτοι δʼ οὖν κατεῖχον τέως τὴν Περραιβίαν καὶ φόρους ἐπράττοντο, ἕως Φίλιππος κατέστη κύριος τῶν τόπων.
These people, then, for a time held Perrhaebia and exacted tribute, until Philip became master of these places.
Λάρισα δʼ ἐστὶ καὶ ἐν τῇ Ὄσσῃ χωρίον· καὶ ἡ Κρεμαστή, ὑπό τινων δὲ Πελασγία λεγομένη· καὶ ἐν τῇ Κρήτῃ πόλις ἡ νῦν εἰς Ἱεράπυτναν συνοικισθεῖσα, ἀφʼ ἧς καὶ τὸ ὑποκείμενον πεδίον νῦν Λαρίσιον καλεῖται· καὶ ἐν Πελοποννήσῳ ἥ τε τῶν Ἀργείων ἄκρα καὶ ὁ τὴν Ἠλείαν ἀπὸ Δύμης διορίζων Λάρισος ποταμός.
And Larisa is also a place on Mount Ossa; and there is Larisa Cremaste, called Pelasgia by some; and in Crete a city now settled together into Hierapytna, from which also the plain lying beneath is now called Larisium; and in Peloponnese both the acropolis of the Argives and the Larisus river which divides Eleia from Dyme.
Θεόπομπος δὲ καὶ πόλιν λέγει ἐν τῇ αὐτῇ μεθορίᾳ κειμένην Λάρισαν· καὶ ἐν τῇ Ἀσίᾳ ἥ τε Φρικωνὶς ἡ περὶ τὴν Κύμην καὶ ἡ κατὰ Ἁμαξιτὸν τῆς Τρῳάδος· καὶ ἡ Ἐφεσία Λάρισά ἐστι καὶ ἐν Συρίᾳ· τῆς δὲ Μιτυλήνης ἀπὸ πεντήκοντα σταδίων εἰσὶ Λαρισαῖαι πέτραι κατὰ τὴν ἐπὶ Μηθύμνης ὁδόν· καὶ ἐν τῇ Ἀττικῇ δʼ ἐστὶ Λάρισα· καὶ τῶν Τράλλεων διέχουσα κώμη τριάκοντα σταδίους ὑπὲρ τῆς πόλεως ἐπὶ Καΰστρου πεδίον διὰ τῆς Μεσωγίδος ἰόντων κατὰ τὸ τῆς Ἰσοδρόμης Μητρὸς ἱερόν, ὁμοίαν τὴν θέσιν καὶ τὴν ἀρετὴν ἔχουσα τῇ Κρεμαστῇ Λαρίσῃ· καὶ γὰρ εὔυδρος καὶ ἀμπελόφυτος· ἴσως δὲ καὶ ὁ Λαρίσιος Ζεὺς ἐκεῖθεν ἐπωνόμασται· καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀριστεροῖς δὲ τοῦ Πόντου κώμη τις καλεῖται Λάρισα μεταξὺ Ναυλό πλησίον τῶν ἄκρων τοῦ Αἵμου.
And Theopompus speaks of a city Larisa lying on the same boundary; and in Asia there is Larisa Phriconis near Cyme, and the one near Hamaxitus in the Troad; and there is the Ephesian Larisa, and one in Syria; and fifty stadia from Mitylene are the Larisaean Rocks on the road to Methymna; and there is also a Larisa in Attica; and a village thirty stadia distant from Tralles, above the city, on the way to the plain of Cayster through Mesogis, near the temple of Mother Isodrome, having a similar position and fertility to Larisa Cremaste; for it is well-watered and planted with vines; and perhaps Zeus Larisius was named from there; and on the left of the Pontus, a certain village is called Larisa, between Naulochus and [...] near the summits of Haemus.
καὶ Ὀλοσσὼν δὲ λευκὴ προσαγορευθεῖσα ἀπὸ τοῦ λευκάργιλος εἶναι, καὶ Ἠλώνη Περραιβικαὶ πόλεις, καὶ Γόννος.
And Oloosson, called white from its consisting of white clay, and Elone are Perrhaebian cities, and also Gonnus.
ἡ δʼ Ἠλώνη μετέβαλε τοὔνομα Λειμώνη μετονομασθεῖσα· κατέσκαπται δὲ νῦν· ἄμφω δʼ ὑπὸ τῷ Ὀλύμπῳ κεῖνται οὐ πολὺ ἄπωθεν τοῦ Εὐρώπου ποταμοῦ, ὃν ὁ ποιητὴς Τιταρήσιον καλεῖ.
And Elone changed its name, being renamed Leimone; it has now been razed; and both lie under Olympus not very far from the Europus river, which the poet calls Titaresius.
