Pimolisa ( Ancient Greek: Πιμώλισα), or Pimolison, [1] was a fortified town of ancient Paphlagonia on the Halys River, near the western border of Pontus. [2] It had been destroyed by Strabo's time, but the district on both sides of the Halys was still called Pimolisene. [1]
Its site is located near Osmancık, Asiatic Turkey. [3] [4]
