Artemisium

ΒΟΛΒΗ (Χωριό) ΘΕΣΣΑΛΟΝΙΚΗ
Artemisium. A fortress in Macedonia, built by the emperor Justinian, at the distance of 40 miles from Thessalonica, and at the mouth of the river Rechius. (Procop. de Aedif. iv. 3.) The Rechius, as Tafel has shown, is the river, by which the waters of the Lake Bolbe flow into the sea, and which Thucydides (iv. 103) refers to, without mentioning its name. (Tafel, Thessalonica, pp. 14, seq., 272, seq.)

Aulon

ΜΥΓΔΟΝΙΑ (Αρχαία χώρα) ΕΛΛΑΔΑ
   Aulon, a hollow between hills or banks, was the name given to many such districts, and to places situated in them.
   In Mygdonia in Macedonia, situated a day's march from the Chalcidian Arnae. (Thuc. iv. 103.) Leake (Northern Greece, vol. iii. p. 170) regards it as simply the name of the pass, through which the waters of the lake Bolbe flow by means of a river into the Strymonic gulf; but it appears to have been also the name of a place in this pass. In later times at all events there was a town called Aulon, since it is mentioned as one of the Macedonian cities restored by Justinian. (De Aedif. iv. 4.)
