"
And even to the present day the Thracians, Illyrians, and Epeirotes live on the flanks of the Greeks (though this was still more the case formerly than now); indeed most of the country that at the present time is indisputably Greece is
held by the barbarians — Macedonia and certain parts of Thessaly by the
Thracians, and the parts above Acarnania and Aetolia by the Thesproti, the Cassopaei, the Amphilochi, the Molossi, and the Athamanes —
Epeirotic tribes."
Macedonia held entirely by THRACIANS (in Strabo's time), while 'only' certain parts of Thessaly were also held by Thracians.
2) Citat/quote:
The country now called Macedonia was formerly called Emathia. It acquired this name from Macedon, one of its ancient princes. There was also a city Emathia near the sea.
The country was occupied by some of the Epirotæ and Illyrians, but the greatest part by Bottiæi and Thracians. The Bottiæi were of Cretan origin, and came under the command of Botton;
the Pieres, who were Thracians, inhabited Pieria and the parts about Olympus; the
Pæonians, the borders of the river Axius, from whence the region was called Amphaxitis;
the Edoni and Bisalti, the rest of the country as far as the Strymon. The
Bisalti retained their name, but the Edoni went under the various names of Mygdones, Edoni, Odones and Sithones.
