Enchele
The Enchelei (Latin: ''Encheleae''; Greek: Ἐγχέλιοι/Ἐγχελεῖς, translit., ''Enchelioi/Encheleis''; name of the country: Ἐγχέλη, ''Enchele''), were an Illyrian tribe that lived around the region of Lake Ohrid 〔John J. Wilkes, ''The Illyrians''; 1996, ISBN 0-631-19807-5, p. 98.〕 and Lynkestis,〔John J. Wilkes, ''The Illyrians'', 1996, ISBN 0-631-19807-5, p. 99.〕〔Strabo, Geography (ed. H.C. Hamilton, Esq., W. Falconer, M.A.), book 7, chapter 7: "...had established their sway, and Encheleii, who are also called Sesarethii. Then come the Lyncestia, the territory Deuriopus, Pelagonia-Tripolitis..."〕 in modern-day Albania, the Republic of Macedonia and Greece. Their name in ancient Greek meant "eel-people". They were often at war for domination of the region with the ancient Macedonians who settled in the east. Their neighbors in the north-west were the Illyrian Taulanti, to the north, the Dardani and to the south the Dassaretae, an ancient Greek tribe.〔Crew, P. Mack. ''The Cambridge Ancient History - The Expansion of the Greek World, Eighth to Sixth Centuries BC. Part 3: Volume 3'', p. 284.〕
==Mythology==
Greek mythology attributes a progenitor to the Enchelei, a son of Illyrius called Encheleus.〔Wilkes, John. The Illyrians. Wiley-Blackwell, 1995, p. 92.〕 It is referred that Cadmus from Phoenicia with his wife Harmonia arrived among the Enchelei. As the legend says it, at that time the Enchelei were at war with neighboring Illyrian tribes and Cadmus after orders from the Oracle became leader of the people and came to their aid. After the victory against the other Illyrians, the Enchelei chose Cadmus as their king.〔(Cadmus ): "After having many children, Cadmus and Harmonia left Thebes in order to defend the Encheleans, a people living in southern Illyria, which is the region north of Epirus, and there defeated the Illyrian intruders..."〕 Illyrius, the eponymous ancestor of the whole Illyrian people,〔; .〕 had multiple sons (Encheleus, Autarieus, Dardanus, Maedus, Taulas and Perrhaebus) and daughters (Partho, Daortho, Dassaro) from which many Illyrian tribes take their name.
