Rhesus
The region around Troy from which, per legend, Rhesus's bones were later exhumed and moved to Amphipolis.
Amphipolis not fully established till 437—they found the legend of Rhesus in the air, and eventually they thought it prudent to send for his hallowed bones from the Troad, where they were supposed to be buried, and give them a tomb in the Athenian colony.
