Κραννών, πόλις τῆς Θεσσαλίας τῆς Πελασγιώτιδος ἐν τοῖς Τέμπεσιν, ὡς Ἑκαταῖος Εὐρώπῃ. ἔστι καὶ ἄλλη πόλις Ἀθαμανίας, ἀπὸ Κράννωνος τοῦ Πελασγοῦ. ἐν ταύτῃ δύο κόρακας εἶναί φασι μόνους, ὡς Καλλίμαχος ἐν τοῖς Θαυμασίοις καὶ Θεόπομπος. ὅταν δ´ ἄλλους ἐκνοσσεύσωσιν, ἴσους αὐτοὺς καταλιπόντες ἀπέρχονται. ὁ πολίτης Κραννώνιος. Ἡρόδοτος ἕκτῃ “ἐκ δὲ Θεσσαλίης ἦλθε τῶν Σκοπαδέων Διακτορίδης Κραννώνιος”. ἀπέχει δὲ σταδίους ἑκατὸν τῆς Γυρτῶνος ἡ Κραννὼν πόλις, ὥς φησι Στράβων. καὶ Ὅμηρός φησιν Ἐφύρους τοὺς Κραννωνίους, Φλεγύας δὲ τοὺς Γυρτωνίους. ἔστι καὶ θηλυκὸν Κραννωνίς ἀπὸ τῆς γενικῆς.
