Moryllus or Moryllos (Ancient Greek: Μόρυλλος) was a town of ancient Macedonia, placed by Ptolemy in the otherwise obscure district of Paraxia,[1] then assumed to be in the district of Anthemus,[2] but now it is placed, thanks to an inscription, in the interior Mygdonia[3] or Crestonia,[4] near modern Ano Apostoli, Kilkis prefecture.[5] The only attested citizens of Moryllus are two Delphic theorodokoi, Hadymos and Seleukos sons of Argaios (c. 230-220 BCE).[6][7]
The site of Moryllus is located near modern Ano Apostoli.[8][9]
