Iamphorina or Iamphorynna was the capital of the Maedi, a Thracian tribe in ancient Macedonia. It was taken by Philip V of Macedon in 211 BCE. [1] Writing in the 19th century, William Martin Leake placed it at Ivorina (Vrania), in the upper valley of the Morava River. [2] Modern scholars treat it as unlocated. [3] Stephanus of Byzantium, citing Diodorus, has the name as Phorunna or Phorounna ( Ancient Greek: Φόρουννα). [4] [3]
