Dolopia

A district in southwestern Thessaly.

  An exile named Phoinix (Phoenix) came to King Peleus of Phthia as a supplicant. Peleus appointed Phoinix as tutor to his son Achilles and subsequently entrusted Phoinix as administrator of Dolopia.

  Dolops, a son of the god Hermes, was the eponymous ancestor of the Dolopians.
