==Name==
During the Ottoman period, the city was named Kaylar, rendered into English as ''Kailar'';〔Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition (1911)〕 this name was retained in Greek as ''Kailaria'' (Καϊλάρια) until 1927. Kailar refers to the Kayı tribe, the tribe of Osman I, the founder of the Ottoman Empire. The modern name Ptolemaida was introduced by decree on January 20, 1927, honoring Ptolemy son of Lagus, a comrade-in-arms of Alexander the Great, and his daughter Ptolemaïs. His statue stands in the central square of the city.
