Komopolis

Background

Komopolis was a Greek military colony in the land of Assyria. The name is derived from the Greek word Κωμόπολις which means the small town. Therefore it is supposed that it was settled by the Macedonians as a military settlement. Only Claudius Ptolemy mentions Komopolis, but its location is unknown.
