Dolopia

Dolopia[1] (Ancient Greek: Δολοπία) is a mountainous region[2] of Greece, located north of Aetolia.

The Dolopes were, like the Magnetes, an ancient Hellenic people, and members of the Amphictyonic League.

[3] Though nominally belonging to Thessaly, they seem practically to have been independent: and their country was at a later period a constant subject of contention between the Aetolians and the kings of Macedonia.

There was also[5] a son of the god Hermes named Dolops (Greek: Δόλοψ), and two persons in the Iliad.

Another Dolops was the son of Clytius, Clytides (Greek: Κλυτίδης),[8] who was killed by Hector, and a third one was the father of Iphimachus that took care of Philoctetes.
