History
Angeia or Angea was a town and polis (city-state) in ancient Thessaly in the district Dolopia. Livy relates that the retreat of Philip V of Macedon after the Battle of the Aous allowed the Aetolians to occupy much of Thessaly, and these latter devastated Angeia and its neighbour, Ctimene. Modern scholars identify the site of Angeia with the modern village of Loutropigi.
