Panormus or Panormos (Ancient Greek: Πάνορμος) was an ancient Greek harbor settlement mentioned by the geographer Ptolemy, in Chaonia in ancient Epirus, situated nearly midway between Oricum and Onchesmus.[1] Strabo describes it as a great harbour in the midst of the Ceraunian Mountains.[2]
It site is possibly located at Porto Palermo south of Himare, Albania.[3] Borsh, Albania has also been suggested as a possible site.[citation needed]
