Theuma (Thessaly)
Theuma was a town of Ancient Thessaly near the frontiers of Dolopia.[1] Livy relates that the retreat of Philip V of Macedon after the Battle of the Aous (198 BC) allowed the Aetolians to occupy much of Thessaly, and these latter plundered Theuma and nearby Celathara, whereas Acharrae surrendered.[2]
