From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cestrine (or Kestrine; modern-day Filiates) is a district of Epirus, separated from Thesprotia by the River Thyamis. In the past, the city was also known as Cammania, Cestria, Filiates, Ilion, Ilium and Troia. According to Pausanias (Description of Greece), Cestrine took its name from Cestrinus, the son of Helenus, having previously borne the appellation of Cammania.
