Encyclopedia Brittanica: Learn about the significant layout of the ancient city of Pella. The city was founded by Archelaus (413--399 BC) as the capital of his kingdom, replacing the older palace-city of Aigai (Vergina). After this, it was the seat of the king Philip II and of Alexander, his son. In 168 BC, it was sacked by the Romans, and its treasury transported to Rome. Later, the city was destroyed by an earthquake and eventually was rebuilt over its ruins. By 180 AD, Lucian could describe it in passing as "now insignificant, with very few inhabitants". Pella is first mentioned by Herodotus of Halicarnassus (VII, 123) in relation to Xerxes' campaign and by Thucydides (II, 99,4 and 100,4) in relation to Macedonian expansion and the war against Sitalces, the king of the Thracians. According to Xenophon, in the beginning of the 4th century BC, it was the largest Macedonian city. It was probably built as the capital of the kingdom by Archelaus, although there appears to be some possibility that it may have been Amyntas. It attracted Greek artists such the painter Zeuxis, the poet Timotheus of Miletus and the tragic author Euripides who finishes his days there writing and producing Archelaus. Archelaus invited the painter Zeuxis, the greatest painter of the time, to decorate it. He was later the host of the Athenian playwright Euripides in his retirement. Euripides Bacchae premiered here, about 408 BC. Pella was the birthplace of Philip II and of Alexander, his son. The hilltop palace of Philip, where Aristotle tutored young Alexander, is being excavated. In antiquity, Pella was a port connected to the Thermaic Gulf by a navigable inlet, but the harbor has silted, leaving the site landlocked. The reign of Antigonus likely represented the height of the city, as this is the period which has left us the most archaeological remains. Pella is further mentioned by Polybius and Livy as the capital of Philip V and of Perseus during the Macedonian Wars. In the writings of Livy, we find the only description of how the city looked in 167 BC to Lucius Aemilius Paulus Macedonicus, the Roman who defeated Perseus at the battle of Pydna: ...[Paulus] observed that it was not without good reason that it had been chosen as the royal residence. It is situated on the south-west slope of a hill and surrounded by a marsh too deep to be crossed on foot either in summer or winter. The citadel the "Phacus," which is close to the city, stands in the marsh itself, projecting like an island, and is built on a huge substructure which is strong enough to carry a wall and prevent any damage from the infiltration from the water of the lagoon. At a distance it appears to be continuous with the city wall, but it is really separated by a channel which flows between the two walls and is connected with the city by a bridge. Thus it cuts off all means of access from an external foe, and if the king shut anyone up there, there could be no possibility of escape except by the bridge, which could be very easily guarded..[2] The famous poet Aratus died in Pella c. 240 BC. Pella was sacked by the Romans in 168 BC, when its treasury was transported to Rome. In the Roman province of Macedonia, Pella was the capital of the third district, and was possibly the seat of the Roman governor. Crossed by the Via Egnatia (Strabo VII, 323), Pella remained a significant point on the route between Dyrrachium and Thessalonika. Cicero stayed there in 58 BC, but by then the provincial seat had already transferred to Thessalonika. It was then destroyed by earthquake in the first century BCE; shops and workshops dating from the catastrophe have been found with remains of their merchandise. The city was eventually rebuilt over its ruins, which preserved them, but ca 180 AD Lucian of Samosata could describe it in passing as "now insignificant, with very few inhabitants" [3] The city went into decline for reasons unknown (possibly an earthquake) by the end of the 1st century BC. It was the object of a colonial deduction sometime between 45 and 30 BC; in any case currency was marked Colonia Iulia Augusta Pella. Augustus settled peasants there whose land he had usurped to give to his veterans (Dio Cassius LI, 4). But unlike other Macedonian colonies such as Philippi, Dion, and Cassandreia it never came under the jurisdiction of ius Italicum or Roman law. Four pairs of colonial magistrates (IIvirs quinquennales) are known for this period. The decline of the city was rapid, in spite of colonization: Dio Chrysostom and Lucian both attest to the ruin of the ancient capital of Philip II and Alexander; though their accounts may be exaggerated. In fact, the Roman city was somewhat to the west of and distinct from the original capital; which explains some contradictions between coinage, epigraphs, and testimonial accounts. In the Byzantine period, the Roman site was occupied by a fortified village.

Located in southeast Iowa, there is a baseball team that has survived for 30 years without having a home field. Since the 1970s, the PCHS team has been forced to find open pastures to hold practices until a baseball field is available. The school is currently building new academic and athletic facilities and needs financial support for the construction and maintenance of the entire athletic complex. At the moment, the school is located in the heart of Pella on eight acres: never being able to host outside sporting events except for softball. Most outside sports currently practice on a patch of grass behind the school until fields open for play. The baseball team in particular doesn't see field time until one week before the season. Despite not having a home field, the sport of baseball continues to march on due to the driving support from the PCHS family and community. This short documentary highlights the history PCHS baseball, captures the struggle to play the game and reveals the community's dream to have a home field.
The song is Makrinitsa (ΜΑΚΡΙΝΙΤΣΑ), taken from the Guardians of Hellenism Vol 7 - Macedonia & Thassos. It is an old song of Naoussa, describing the sack of the city by the Turks in 1822 and the refugees going to Makrinitsa. The translation: 'Three birds, three birds were sitting at Naoussa Castle. The one, aman aman! He looks to Bodina, the other at Saloniki. My Makrinitsa, there is such sadness in my heart. I talk to the one, aman! I talk to the other other, aman! Night is falling, where shall I stay? The third, the third, the smallest laments and says: By the heavens, mother, how my body is tormented. They've taken, the've sacked Naoussa, they took our women! By the seas! Mother, what a body I have embraced. I talk to the one, aman! I talk to the other, aman! Night is falling, where shall I stay? The areas covered are Giannitsa in Pella (Πέλλα), Goumenissa in Kilkis (Κιλκίς). Also, in Imathia (Ημαθία): Veria, Antigonides (Episkopi), Alexandria (Roumlouki), Naoussa and Vergina.
