In antiquity, Paeonia ((ギリシア語:Παιονία)) was the land and kingdom of the Paeonians (Ancient Greek Παίονες). The exact original boundaries of Paeonia, like the early history of its inhabitants, are obscure, but it is believed that they lay in the region of Thrace. In the time of Classical Greece, Paeonia might have later included the whole Vardar (formerly Axios) river valley and the surrounding areas. It was located immediately north of ancient Macedonia (which roughly corresponds to the modern Greek region of Macedonia) and to the south-east of Dardania (roughly corresponding to modern-day Kosovo); in the east were the Thracian mountains, and in the west, the Illyrians.〔Strabo, "Geography", 7, Frg.4, 9.5.1〕 It was separated from Dardania by the mountains through which the Vardar river passes from the field of Scupi (modern Skopje) to the valley of Bylazora (modern Veles). Paeonia roughly corresponds to the present-day Macedonia, a narrow strip along the north part of the Greek region of Macedonia, and a small part of south-western Bulgaria. ==Tribes== The Paeonian tribes were: *Agrianes〔Early symbolic systems for communication in Southeast Europe, Part 2 by Lolita Nikolova, ISBN 1-84171-334-1, 2003, page 529, "eastern Paionians (Agrianians and Laeaeans)"〕 (also, ''Agriani'' and ''Agrii'') *Almopians〔''The Landmark Thucydides: A Comprehensive Guide to the Peloponnesian War'' by Thucydides, Robert B.
