Vlochos

Vlochos (Greek: Βλοχός) is a village in modern Thessaly, Greece. It belongs to the municipality of Palamas and the regional unit of Karditsa.[1]

History

Just south of the village lies the steep hill of Strongilovouni, the site of an extensive ancient settlement. The remains at Strongilovouni are currently studied by the Ephorate of Antiquities of Karditsa and the Swedish Institute at Athens in a three-year collaborative project.[2]
