The eastern coast of Thessaly was anciently so called. The
Magnetes who occupied it were among the people who became
subject to the Thessalians or Thesprotians, when the latter
came over from Epirus and occupied the valley of the Peneus.
_G. Grote,
History of Greece,
part 2, chapter 3._
Two towns named Magnesia in Asia Minor were believed to be
colonies from the Magnetes of Thessaly. One was on the south
side of the Meander; the other, more northerly, near the river
Harmus.
