Stryme (city)

Stryme (Ancient Greek: Στρύμη) was an ancient Greek[1][2] city located in Thrace, located in the region between the river Nestos to the river Hebros. It was founded by colonists from Thasos. Stryme is called a Thasian polis bordering on Mesambria. Stryme was located in the Briantike, a region formerly called Dahbiah and belonging to the Thracian Cicones. Demosthenes stresses the lack of a safe harbour, at least for naval units.
