Terpyllus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Terpyllos)

Terpyllus or Terpyllos (Ancient Greek: Τέρπνλλος) was a town of Mygdonia in ancient Macedonia.[1] The name has also come down to us in the form of Trepillus.[2][3]

The site of Terpyllus is unlocated,[4] although a village in the former municipality of Kroussa has revived the name.
