Bottiaea

Bottiaea (Greek: Βοττιαία Bottiaia) was a geographical region of Lower Macedonia and an administrative district of the Macedonian Kingdom. It was previously inhabited by the Bottiaeans, a people of uncertain origin, later expelled by the Makedones into Bottike (Chalcidice). In Roman times it was replaced by Emathia as a geographical term.
