Moryllus

Moryllus or Moryllos was a town of ancient Macedonia, earlier assumed to be in the district of Anthemus,[1] but now it is placed ,thanks to an inscription, in the interior Mygdonia[2] or Crestonia,[3] near modern Ano Apostoli, Kilkis prefecture.[4] The only attested citizens of Moryllus are two Delphic theorodokoi, Hadymos and Seleukos sons of Argaios (c.230-220 BC).[5][6]
