Τοπωνύμια (7)

Αρχαία τοπωνύμια

Στεύνος

Γύρω από τη σπηλιά αυτή εγκαταστάθηκαν οι άποικοι από την Αζανία (Παυσ. 8,4,3).

Ποταμός Πέγκαλας

Ποταμός κοντά στον οποίο εγκαταστάθηκαν οι άποικοι από την Αζανία (Παυσ. 8,4,3).

Alander

Alander a river of Phrygia (Liv. xxxviii. 15, 18), which is twice mentioned by Livy, in his account of the march of Cn. Manlius. It was probably a branch of the Sangarius, as Hamilton (Researches in Asia Minor, vol. i. pp. 458, 467) conjectures, and the stream which flows in the valley of Beiad; but he gives no modern name

Obrimas river

  A river of Phrygia, an eastern tributary of the Maeander, had its sources, according to Livy (xxxviii. 15), on the eastern side of Mount Cadmus, near the town of Asporidos, and flowed in the neighbourhood of Apamea Cibotus (Plin. v. 29.) This is all the direct information we possess about it; but from Livy's account of the expedition of Manlius, who had pitched his camp there, when he was visited by Seleucus from Apamea, we may gather some further particulars, which enable us to identify the Obrimas with the Sandukli Chai. Manlius had marched direct from Sagalassus, and must have led his army through the plains of Dombai, passing in the rear of Apamea. Thus Seleucus would easily hear of the consul being in his neighbourhood, and, in his desire to propitiate him, would have started after him and overtaken him the next day (postero die.) Manlius, moreover, at the sources of the Obrimas required guides, because he found himself hemmed in by mountains and unable to find his way to the plain of Metropolis. All this agrees perfectly well with the supposition that the ancient Obrimas is the modern Sandukli Chai (Hamilton, Researches, ii. p. 172, &e.). Franz (Funf Inschriften, p. 37), on the other hand, supposes the Kodsha Chai to correspond with the Obrimas. Arundell (Discov. in Asia Min. i. p. 231), again, believes that Livy has confounded the sources of the Marsyas and Maeander with those of the Obrimas.

Tymandus

Tymandus (Tumandos: Eth. TumandeWos), a place in Phrygia, between Philomelium and Sozopolis. (Cone. Chalked. pp. 244, and 247: in this passage the reading Mandenon pogis is corrupt; Hierocl. p. 673, where the name is miswritten Tumandros.) It is possible that Tymandus may be the same as the Dymas mentioned by Livy (xxxviii. 15), for which some MSS. have Dimas or Dinias.

Gygaeus Lacus

  Gygaeus Lacus (Gugaia Limnm: Mermere), a lake in Phrygia, on the road from Thyatira to Sardes, between the rivers Hermus and Hyllus. (Hom. Il. ii. 864, xx. 391; Herod. i. 93; Strab. xiii. p. 626; Plin. v. 30.) This lake was afterwards called Coloe, and near it was the necropolis of Sardes. It was said to have been made by human hands, to receive the waters which inundated the plain. (Comp. Hamilton's Researches, vol. i. p. 145.)

Tymbres

Tymbres a tributary of the Sangarius, in the north of Phrygia (Liv. xxxviii. 18), is in all probability the same river as the one called by Pliny (vi. 1) Tembrogius, which joined the Sangarius, as Livy says, on the borders of Phrygia and Galatia, and, flowing in the plain of Dorylaeum, separated Phrygia Epictetus from Phrygia Salutaris. It seems also to be the same river as the Thyaris and Bathys mentioned in Byzantine writers. (Cinnamus, v. 1. p. 1ll; Richter, Wallfahrten, p. 522, foll.)
