NEA KALLIKRATIA (Small town) HALKIDIKI
ANTIGONIA (Ancient city) HALKIDIKI
Antigonea, Eth. Antigoneus, Antigonensis. A town of Macedonia in the district
Crusis in Chalcidice, placed by Livy between Aeneia and Pallene. (Liv. xliv. 10.)
It is called by Ptolemy (iii. 13. § 38) Psaphara (Psaphara) probably in order
to distinguish it from Antigoneia in Paeonia.
GIGONOS (Ancient city) HALKIDIKI
Gigonis akra (Etym. Mag. s. v. Egonis, Ptol. iii. 13. § 23). A promontory
on the coast of the Crossaea, in Macedonia, with a town Gigonus (Gigonos,
Steph. B.), to which the Athenian force, which had been employed against Perdiccas,
marched in three days from Beraea. (Thuc. i. 61.) It appears, from the order of
the names in Herodotus (vii. 123), that it was to the S. of Cape Aeneium, the
great Karaburnu; hence its situation was nearly that of Cape Apanomi.
