Triopium

ΚΝΙΔΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
  Triopium (Triopion akron: C. Crio), the promontory at the eastern extremity of the peninsula of Gnidus, forming at the same time the southwestern extremity of Asia Minor. (Thucyd. viii. 35, 60; Scylax, p. 38; Pomp. Mela, i. 16.) On the summit of this promontory a temple of Apollo, hence called the Triopian, seems to have stood, near which games were celebrated, whence Scylax calls the promontory the akroterion hieron. According to some authorities the town of Cnidus itself also bore the name of Triopium, having, it is said, been founded by Triopas. (Steph. B. s. v. Triopion; Plin. v. 29, who calls it Triopia; Eustath. ad Horn. Il. iv. 341)

Scopia

ΜΥΝΔΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
Scopia (Skopia akra), a headland on the west coast of Caria, to the west of Myndus, and opposite the island of Cos. (Ptol. v. 2. § 10.) Strabo (xiv. p. 658) mentions two headlands in the same vicinity, Astypalaea and Zephyrium, one of which may possibly be the same as Scopia.

Lagusa

ΤΕΛΜΗΣΣΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
  Lagusa (Lagousa), one of a group of small islands in the bay of Telmissus in Lycia, 5 stadia from Telmissus, and 80 from Cissidae. (Plin. v. 35 ; Steph. B. s. v.; Stadiasm. Mar. Mag. § 226, foll.) This island is generally considered to be the same as the modern Panagia di Cordialissa.

Αρχαία τοπωνύμια

Philyreis

ΖΕΦΥΡΙΟΝ (Αρχαία τοποθεσία) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
  Philyreis (Philureis), an island off the coast of Pontus, in the Euxine. It must have been situated near Cape Zephyrium, opposite the district inhabited by the Philyres, from which, in all probability, it derived its name. (Apollon. Rhod. ii. 1231; comp. Amm. Marc. xxii. 8; Dionys. Per. 766; Steph. B. s. v. Philures.) Hamilton (Researches, i. p. 261) identifies it with the small rocky island 2 miles west of Cape Zefreh, and between it and the island of Kerasonde Ada.

Calbis river

ΚΑΥΝΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ

Imbrus hill

Cerameicus bay

ΚΕΡΑΜΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
  Cerameicus (Kerameikos kolpos), a bay in Caria (Herod. i. 174), now the gulf of Boudroun, so called from a town Ceramus (Keramos), which is on the gulf. Strabo places Ceramus and Bargasa near the sea, between Cnidus and Halicarnassus, and Ceramus comes next after Cnidus. D'Anville identifies Ceramus with a place called Keramo, but this place does not appear to be known. (Leake, Asia Minor, p. 225.) Ptolemy seems to place Ceramus on the south side of the bay. Some modern maps place it on the north side; but this cannot be true, particularly if Bargasa is rightly determined. There are medals which are assigned to Ceramus by some numismatists.
  Pliny mentions a Doridis Sinus. Now, as Doris is the country occupied by the Dorian colonies, this name is more appropriate to the Cerameicus, on the north side of which is Halicarnassus, and at the entrance is the island of Cos. Pliny's words are clear, though they have been generally misunderstood; for, after mentioning the bay of Schoenus and the Regio Bubassus, he mentions Cnidus, and he says that Doris begins at Cnidus. Again, he says that Halicarnassus is between the Cerameicus and the Iasius: the Cerameicus of Pliny, then, is either different from the Sinus Doridis, or it is one of the bays included in the Sinus Doridis, and so called from the town of Ceramus. But Pliny places in the Doridis Sinus, Leucopolis, Hamaxitus, Elaeus, and Euthene; and Mela (i. 16) places Euthane, as he calls it, in a bay between Cnidus and the Cerameicus Sinus: from which it clearly appears that Euthane is in the Sinus Doridis of Pliny, and that Mela's Cerameicus is a smaller bay in the Sinus Doridis. Mela's Littus Leuca is between Halicarnassus and Myndus; and if this is Pliny's Leucopolis, as we may assume, the identity of the Cerameicus and the Sinus Doridis of Pliny is clearly established.

Termerium

ΜΥΝΔΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
Α promontory belonging to the Myndians, opposite which lies Scandaria, a promontory of Cos, forty stadia distant from the mainland. And there is a place called Termerum above the promontory of Cos.

Arganthonius mountain

ΠΟΣΕΙΔΙΟΝ (Αρχαίο ιερό) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
  Argathonius (Arganthonios, Arganthon, Steph. s. v. Arganthon: Adj. Arganthoneios), a mountain range in Bithynia, which forms a peninsula, and divides the gulfs of Cius and Astacus. The range terminates in a headland which Ptolemy calls Posidium: the modern name is Katirli, according to some authorities, and Bozburun according to others. The name is connected with the mythus of Hylas and the Argonautic expedition. (Strab. p. 564; Apoll. Rhod. i. 1176.)

Telmissicus Sinus

ΤΕΛΜΗΣΣΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
A bay between Lycia and Caria, which derived its name from the Lycian town of Telmessus (Liv. xxxvii. 16; Lucan viii.248); but it is more commonly known by the name Glaucus Sinus, and is at present called the Bay of Macri.
