Bryanium
Bryanium or Bryanion (Ancient Greek: Βρυάνιον) was a town of ancient Macedonia, in the district Deuriopus in Paeonia.[1][2] Stephanus of Byzantium erroneously calls it a town of Epirus.[3]
The site of Bryanium is tentatively located near the modern-day village of Graište, North Macedonia.[4][5]
