Coin of Lykkeios (Lycceius), King of Paeonia (359–335 BC), depicting Herakles and the Nemean lion Paeonians and the Kingdom of Macedon
In antiquity, Paeonia or Paionia (Ancient Greek: Παιονία, romanized: Paionía) was the land and kingdom of the Paeonians (or Paionians; Ancient Greek: Παίονες, romanized: Paíones). The exact original boundaries of Paeonia, like the early history of its inhabitants, are obscure, but it is known that it roughly corresponds to present-day North Macedonia, and also to some parts of northern Greece, western Bulgaria and southeasternmost Serbia.
