ΦΑΖΗΜΩΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
A small town in the west of Pontus, south of Gazelonitis, and north
of Amasia; it contained hot mineral springs, which, according to Hamilton (Researches,
i. p. 333), are the modern baths of Cauvsa. (Strab. xii. pp. 553, 560, 561.) Pompey,
after his victory over Mithridates, planted a colony there, and changed its name
into Neapolis, from which the whole district was called Neapolitis, having previously
been called Phazemonitis. (Strab. xii. p. 560; Steph. B. s. v. Phamizon, for thus
the name is erroneously written.) Phazemon is generally supposed to correspond
in situation with the modern town of Mazifun or Marsifun.
