Strume. A town on the S. coast of Thrace, a little to the W. of Mesembria, between
which and Stryme flowed the small river Lissus, which the army of Xerxes is said
to have drunk dry. (Herod. vii. 108.) Stryme was a colony of Thasos; but disputes
seem to have arisen respecting it between the Thasii and the people of the neighbouring
city of Maroneia. (Philip. ap. Demos. p. 163, R.)
