- Maedi abstract "The Maedi (also Maidans, Maedans, or Medi), (Ancient Greek Μαῖδοι) were a Thracian or Illyrian tribe, which in historic times, occupied the area between Paionia and Thrace, on the southwestern fringes of Thrace, along the middle course of the Strymon, between the Kresna Gorge and the Rupel Pass (present-day south-western Bulgaria).Their capital city was Iamphorynna which lay somewhere in the southwest corner of what is now Bulgaria. Some scientists posit it in the area between the cities of Petrich and Sandanski, but its exact location remains unknown.They were an independent tribe through much of their history, and the Thracian king Sitalkes recognized their independence, along with several other warlike "border" tribes such as the Dardani, Agrianes, and Paeonians, whose lands formed a buffer zone between the powers of the Odrysians on the east and of Illyrian tribes in the west, while Macedon was located to the south of Paeonia. The ancient historian and biographer Plutarch describes Spartacus as "a Thracian of nomadic stock", referring to the Maedi. Plutarch also says Spartacus' wife, a prophetess of the same tribe, was enslaved with him.In 89–84 bc (during the First Mithridatic War), the Maedi overran Macedon, looted Dodona[citation needed], and sacked Delphi as allies[citation needed] of Mithridates. It is said that they made a habit of raiding Macedon when a king of Macedon was away on a campaign.Sulla after this ravaged the land of the Maedi. Aristotle recorded that bolinthos was the Maedan word for a species of wild Aurochses or Wisents that lived in the region.A number of Maedi emigrated to Asia minor and were called MaedoBythini (Greek: Μαιδοβίθυνοι).".
