Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Amydon (Ancient Greek: Ἀμυδών; gen: Ἀμυδῶνος) was a town of Paeonia in the lower Axios region of Amphaxitis, later part of Macedon. It is mentioned by Homer, as the capital of the Paeonians, who under Pyraechmes fought on the Trojan side in the Trojan War. The exact location seems to have been unknown in historical times. Amydon was later called Abydon, but according to Strabo, it was destroyed.
