Pella
Pella ((ギリシア語:Πέλλα)), is best known as the ancient and wealthy capital of the kingdom of Macedon in the time of Alexander the Great. On the site of the ancient city is the Archaeological Museum of Pella.
==Etymology==
A common folk etymology is traditionally given for the name ''Pella'', deriving it from the Ancient Macedonian word ''pélla'' (), "stone"〔(Πέλλα / Pella ), Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, ''A Greek–English Lexicon''〕〔Hesych.: ''Schol.U.Demosth.'': Martin Nilsson, ''Die Geschichte der Griechische Religion'', vol. I (C. H. Beck), 1955, p. 558〕〔R. S. P. Beekes has suggested a Pre-Greek proto-form
*πελσα (''Etymological Dictionary of Greek'', Brill, 2009, p. 1168).〕 and forming with the prefix ''a-'' the Doric ''apella'', meaning in this case fence, enclosure of stone.〔Nilsson, Vol. I, p. 558〕 The word ''apella'' originally meant fold, fence for animals, and then assembly of people.〔Heshych. (apellai), "folds", "assemblies", "elections": Nilsson Vol. I, p. 556〕 However, the local form of Greek was not Doric, and the word exactly matches standard Greek ''pélla'' "stone", possibly referring to a famous landmark from the time of its foundation. 〔Mallory, J.P. and D.Q. Adams. ''Encyclopedia of Indo-European Culture''. London: Fitzroy and Dearborn, 1997: 432〕 Another proposed etymology is that Pella originally meant "defensible citadel on a cliff", and this etymology is backed by the numerous ancient cities throughout Greece with similar name i.e. Pellana, Pallene, Palle, Pelle, Pelion, Palamede, Pellene, etc.
