About: Bottiaeans

An Entity of Type: ethnic group, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Bottiaeans or Bottiaei (Ancient Greek: Βοττιαῖοι) were an ancient people of uncertain origin, living in Central Macedonia. Sometime, during the Archaic period, they were expelled by Macedonians from Bottiaea to Bottike. During the Classical era, they played an active role in the military history of ancient Chalcidice, but after the Macedonian conquest under Philip II nothing remained except the names of these two regions and the adjective Bottiaean, which was limited to sole geographical meaning. Unlike other tribes of Macedonia ruled by kings or living in villages, Bottiaeans developed some polis form of self-government. Unfortunately, no Bottiaean individual is known to us and the limited historical or archaeological sources shed no further light.

  • Els botieus (llatí: Bottiæi, en grec antic: Βοττιαῖοι) eren un poble de mític origen cretenc segons Estrabó (encara que probablement eren tracis) que vivia al districte macedoni de Bòtia o Botiea. Els botieus dominaven Pel·la, però van ser foragitats de les seves terres al segle iv aC pels macedonis, i cap al segle iii aC ja els havien absorbit. Els botieus, doncs, s'instal·laren a la Calcídica, però l'any 479 aC els perses, que havien ocupat la zona, sospitaven que els botieus volien revoltar-se, i van ocupar Olint, la seva ciutat principal a la Calcídica; van matar als seus habitants i la van cedir als grecs calcídics dirigits per , aliat dels perses.
