PHARCADON (Φαρκαδών, Φαρκηδών; Eth. Φαρκηδόνιος), a city of Histiaeotis in Thessaly, situated to the left of the Peneius, between Pelinnaeum and Atrax. It is probably represented by the ruins situated upon the slope of the rocky height above Gritziáno. (Strab. ix. p.438; Steph. B. sub voce Leake, Northern Greece, vol. iv. p. 316, seq.)
