About: Scithae

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

Scithae or Skithai (Ancient Greek: Σκίθαι) was a town of Chalcidice in ancient Macedonia. It is cited in a fragment of Theopompus collected by Stephanus of Byzantium, which locates it in Thrace, in the vicinity of Potidaea. The city also appears on coins; Scithaean silver coins dated around the year 500 BCE have been preserved. It has been suggested that Scithae is the same place as Kithas, which suggestion is accepted by the editors of the Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World. Accepting the identification, its site is located in the western Chalcidice.

dbo:abstract
  • Escitas (en griego, Σκίθαι) fue una antigua ciudad griega de la península Calcídica. Es citada en un fragmento de Teopompo recogido por Esteban de Bizancio, que la ubica en Tracia, en las proximidades de Potidea.​ La ciudad también aparece atestiguada por testimonios numismáticos ya que se conservan monedas de plata de Escitas fechadas en torno al año 500 a C. Se ha sugerido la posibilidad de que sea la misma ciudad que Cita, mencionada en un registro de tributos a Atenas. Se desconoce su localización exacta.​ (es)
