Dion (Thessaly)

Dion (Δίον)^[1] or Dia (Δῖα or Δία) was a town of Phthiotis in ancient Thessaly.^[2] In 302 BCE, Cassander planned to transfer the town's population to nearby Phthiotic Thebes but this was prevented by Demetrius Poliorcetes.^[3]^[2]

Its site has tentatively been located at a place called Lichas Kastri.^[4]^[5]
