Bylazora was the largest Paeonian town from the period of early classic antiquity. It is located near the village of Knezhje, which is part of the municipality of Sveti Nikole in Macedonia.
Bylazora commanded the entrance to the route southwest into Pelagonia via the Babuna Valley into Styberra and interior of the Macedonian Kingdom. Philip V of Macedonia captured it from Dardanian occupation in 217 BC and reconstructed its fortifications. King Perseus of Macedonia, during the Third Macedonian War, arranged military support from the Gauls in defending the city against the Romans in 168 BC.
