Template:Short description

Chrysondyon (Template:Langx) was an ancient town in the southern Illyrian region of Dassaretia, mentioned by Polybius in the 2nd century BC in the accounts of the Illyrian Wars and Macedonian Wars.[1][2][3][4] The location of the ancient town is still unknown.[3] It was probably situated between Lychnidus and Antipatrea.[5]

Along with Antipatrea, Gertous and Creonion, Chrysondyon was one of the Dassaretan towns (also described as castella) around which the Illyrian dynast Skerdilaidas and the Macedonian king Philip V fought in 217 BC.[1][4] The settlement of Chrysondyon was evidently walled.[4]
