Topeiros (Paradeisos)

settlement · 30 BC – 640 AD

There is evidence for human habitation from the Neolithic onward In and around Paradeisos, a modern Greek village in the Nestos municipality of Kavala, Macedonia and Thrace. Long-standing scholarly consensus holds that these remains are to be identified with the well-attested ancient settlement of Topeiros, although BAtlDir registers slight hesitation (question mark).
