Storia
Rhizus or Rhizous was a town and polis of Magnesia in ancient Thessaly, whose inhabitants were transported by Demetrios Poliorketes to Demetrias upon the foundation of the latter city. According to Periplus of Pseudo-Scylax, Rhizus was outside the Pagasaean Gulf, on the exterior (Aegean) shore. In Strabo's time, it was a village dependent on Demetrias. Coins minted by Rhizus have been found, dated in the 4th century BCE.
