(ap uhl loh' nih uh). Place name meaning, “belonging to Apollo.” Paul visited Apollonia on his second missionary journey, though the Bible reports no activity there (Acts 17:1 ). The city is in northern Greece or Macedonia on the international highway called Via Egnatia, 30 miles from Amphipolis and 38 miles from Thessalonica.
