Adranon or Adranos , present day Adrano, was an ancient polis on the southwestern slopes of Mount Etna, near Simeto River.
The ancient city was founded by the ancient Greek ruler Dionysius I of Syracuse around 400 BC upon a pre-Hellenic neolithic settlement, near a temple dedicated to the god Adranus, worshiped throughout Sicily. Adranus was associated with volcanoes and equated eventually with Hephaestus. The city was conquered by Timoleon at 343-342 BC and subjugated to Rome in 263 BC. Romans declared it a civitas stipendiaria .
