From Wikipedia

Potidaea (; Ancient Greek: Ποτίδαια, Potidaia, also Ποτείδαια, Poteidaia) was a colony founded by the Corinthians around 600 BC in the narrowest point of the peninsula of Pallene, the westernmost of three peninsulas at the southern end of Chalcidice in northern Greece. One of the leading cities of Chalcidice, Potidaea was a tributary member of the Delian League whose revolt in 432 BC helped precipitate the Peloponnesian War. It fell to Athens after a siege of more than two years, was twice settled with Athenian cleruchs, and was taken by Philip II of Macedon in 356 BC, who sold its people into slavery and gave the town and its territory to Olynthus. In 316 BC Cassander refounded the site as Cassandreia.
