[738] We now go to the N. of Central Thessaly, the home of the Lapiths (12.128), near the later Larissa. Oloösson is said to be still, under the name of Elassona, conspicuous for its white limestone rock. Strabo says (439) that all these towns were Peraibian till the Lapiths seized them. Here it is the “Φῆρες” who are driven out.
