Modern Description: Col. Leake reported a small fortified height at Stratoni. Because of the name, he connected it with a city Stratonike mentioned only by Ptolemaeus, in the Singitic Gulf. Vestiges of a Roman agora and heroon have been excavated, with the bulk of the material just S of the modern town. However, local tradition insists that ancient Stageira was here, rather than further N. The town of Isvoros/Nizvoro was Hellenized to Stratoniki.
