Tripolis Larisaia

Tripolis (Ancient Greek: Τρίπολις; meaning "three cities") or Tripolis Larisaia (Τρίπολις Λάρισαια), also called Scaea, was an ancient city in the Pelasgiotis in Thessaly, Greece, on the Peneus (Peneios) river, situated approximately 5 km to the east of Larissa.[1]

During the Third Macedonian War, the Romans under Publius Licinius camped here on the march to Larissa (171 BCE).[1]

Its site is tentatively located near Platykampos.[2]
