ΔΟΒΗΡΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΚΙΛΚΙΣ
Doberus (Doberos, Steph. B.; Deboros, Diaboros, Douberos), a Paeonian
town or district, which Sitalces reached after crossing Cercine, and where many
troops and additional volunteers reached him, making up his full total. (Thuc.
ii. 98, 100.) Hierocles names Diaboros next to Idomene among the towns of the
Consular Macedonia under the Byzantine empire; this, coupled with the statement
of Ptolemy (iii. 13. 8. § 28) that it belonged to the Aestraei, would seem to
show that Doberus was near the modern Doghiran.
The Doberes (Doberes, Doberi, Plin. iv. 10) are described by Herodotus
(vii. 113) as inhabiting, with the Paeoplae, the country to the N. of Mt. Pangaeum,
these being precisely the tribes whom he had before associated with the inhabitants
of the Lake Prasias (v. 16). Their position must, therefore, be sought to the
E. of the Strymon: they shared Mt. Pangaeum with the Paeonians and Pierians, and
dwelt probably on the N. side, where, in the time of the Roman empire, there was
a mutatio, or place for changing horses, on the Via Egnatia, called Domeros, between
Amphipolis and Philippi, 13 M. P. from the former and 19 M. P. from the latter.

vol. iii. pp. 212, 444, 467.)
