    BitolaNorth Macedonia4th century BC–6th century AD

    Heraclea Lyncestis is an ancient city founded in the 4th century BC by Philip II of Macedon, father of Alexander the Great. Located near Bitola in southern North Macedonia, the city evolved from a Hellenistic strategic outpost into a prosperous Roman center along the Via Egnatia and later a prominent Early Christian bishopric. Renowned for its amphitheatre, Roman baths, and world-class floor mosaics, Heraclea's ancient ruins are also famous for reported sightings of Roman soldiers and ghostly battle cries echoing across the silent marble amphitheatre.
