Aetolia in 218 B.C.

Aetolia — Aetolian League › Aetolia & the Amphictyony.

The rugged highland heartland of the league, a country of hardy clansmen rather than great cities. At its centre stands Thermon, the federal sanctuary of Apollo where the assembly meets — which Philip V stormed and sacked in 218, carrying off or burning its dedications in a shocking sacrilege.
