Site in Caria 13 km SW of Marmaris, proved by the identification of
Kastabos at Pazarllk on the mountain above Hisaronu. Bybassos was a Rhodian deme
and Kastabos lay in its territory. Herodotos (1.174) observes that Knidian territory
began from the Bybassian Chersonese, that is, the Loryma peninsula SW of Marmaris;
Diodoros (5.62) speaks of Bubastos in the Chersonese; Pliny (HN 5.104) uses regio
Bubassus; Mela (1.84) says that the sinus Bubasius includes Kyrnos; Stephanos
Byzantios s.v. calls it a city. Bybassos was long believed to be represented by
the ruins at Emecik, on the Knidian peninsula 10 km E of Datca (Resadiye), and
the Bybassian Chersonese to be the E half of that peninsula, but this is demonstrably
wrong. Bybassos was among the more important of the Rhodian mainland demes, and
the demotic is frequent in the inscriptions.
The ruins at Hisaronu are scanty and inscriptions lacking. The acropolis
hill is about 1 km W of the village; it carries remains of a fortification wall
and some stretches of terrace wall; Hellenistic sherds are abundant. Other remains
in the neighborhood include a long double field wall a little to the N, some remnants
of buildings on the seashore, and some evidence of the existence of a church.
