  Eurumenai (Apoll. Rhod., Steph. B. s. v.); Erumnai, (Strab.): Eth. Eurumenios. A town of Magnesia in Thessaly, situated upon the coast at the foot of Mt. Ossa, between Rhizus and Myrae. (Scylax, p. 25; Strab. ix. p. 443; Liv. xxxix. 25.) Pliny relates that crowns thrown into a fountain at Eurymenae became stones. (Plin. xxxi. 2. s. 20.) Leake supposes the site of Eurymenae to be represented by some ancient remains between Thanatu and Karitza.
