Zerynthus (Ancient Greek: Ζήρυνθος, romanizedZḗrunthos; Latin: Zerynthus[1]) was a town of the ApsynthiiinThrace which had a temple of Apollo[2] and Artemis. Because of that two deities derived the epithet of Zerynthian.[3]

According to Lycophron's Alexandra, this was the location of Zerynthos or Zirynthia, a cave sacred to Hecate.[4]
