Jakupica (Macedonian: Јакупица, Albanian: Jakupicë) or Mokra[2] (Macedonian: Мокра, Albanian: Mokër) is a mountain range in the central part of North Macedonia. The headwaters of the Axios river (Ancient Greek: Ἀξιός), mentioned by Homer (Il. 21.141, Il. 2.849)[3] as the home of the Paeonians allies of Troy, spring from its flanks.
