Gazoros or Gazorus (Greek: Γάζωρος) was a town mentioned by Ptolemy to be in the region of Edonis or Odomantike[1] and also by inscriptions of Hellenistic and Roman times.[2] Later in the 4th century BC, it was annexed to the Macedonian kingdom and made a polis[3][4] under Phillip II of Macedon or the Antigonids.[5] Artemis Gazoria or Gazoreitis was worshiped all over the region till Roman times. In the imperial times, according to epigraphic evidences, Gazoros was a member of a federation of five cities ("Pentapolis") that had its seat in the ancient city of Sirra (today Serres).[6]
Gazoros is currently located in Greece[7] 3 km to the east of the modern village with the same name,[8] on the hill of "Haghios Athanasios".[9] [10] The modern town Gazoros is part of the municipality Nea Zichni, in the Serres regional unit of Central Macedonia.
