Tyrodiza

Asia

Tyrodiza was a Greek city in ancient Thrace on the Propontis, flourishing between roughly 550 and 330 BCE and identified with the place called Tiristasis in the Periplus of Pseudo-Scylax and in Pliny the Elder. It was a member of the Delian League and appears in the tribute lists of Athens between 452 and 445 BCE, and in 340 BCE the Athenian general Diopeithes captured it, enslaving its people along with those of Crobyle.
