Oracle at Cyaneae

KYANEAI (Ancient city) TURKEY
Oracle at Cyaneae, in Lycia. (The town is mentioned in Pliny, v. § 101.) Here was an oracle of Apollo Thyrxeus (perhaps = thuraios: cf. Tertull. de coron. mil. 354), near which was a well, into which any one looking saw all that he desired (panta hoposa thelei, Pausan. vii. 21, § 6).
