History
Porthmion was an ancient Greek settlement of the Bosporan Kingdom in Crimea. It emerged at the end of the 6th century BC near a ferry crossing and is also an archaeological site preserving the remains of the ancient city, covering an area of about 0.65 hectares. The city existed until the 1st century BC. It was located on the Kerch Peninsula, at the southern foothills of Mount Khroni (Chroni).
