Perrhaebi

Still independent at the time of the Iliad, they were tributary períoikoi to the neighbouring Thessali in the 5th century BC, with a special dependence upon the city of Larisa.

They could, however, enjoy some degree of autonomy whenever the Thessalian League was weaker, and they had retained from their independence two votes in the Delphic Amphictyonic League (Amphiktyonía), until Philip II of Macedon took one vote from them.

They were part of the Macedonian Kingdom until the Roman conquest by Titus Quinctius Flamininus in 196 BC.

[6] A coin of the Perrhaebi depicted a man restraining a bull on one side and a horse on the other.

[5] Their principal towns were Phalanna, situated in fertile plains, and Oloosson, the tribal capital.
