History
Orthagoria or Orthagoreia (Ὀρθαγορεία) was an ancient Greek town of ancient Thrace, located on the coast of the Aegean Sea. Pliny the Elder says Ortagurea was the old name of Maroneia, but Strabo places both cities successively in the Thracian region. Some have suggested that Orthagoria was the ancient name of Stageira.
