<blockquote>Amphipolis, a Town of Thracia on the side of Macedonia, being an Archbishoprick. The Greeks call'd it Christopoli since, and its modern name is Emboli; it's situated on the River Strymon, which washes it on every side. It was formerly called Neuf Chemins or Nine-ways. Aristagoras the Milesian flying from Darius would have settled here, but was hindered by the Edonians in the 69th Olympiad. The Athenians sent 10000 Inhabitants thither afterward, who were all cut in pieces at Drabesque by the Thracians. This did not hinder Aginon the Son of Nicias to settle a new Colony there, after having chased away the Edonians. Those People espousing the quarrel of the Lacedemonians against the Athenians were the cause of the War being renewed in the time of Philip of Macedon. Perdiccas took Amphipolis in the 89th Olympiad. Thucyd. Justin.</blockquote>
