Caria is especially distinguished for the fame of its places 

 in the interior ; for here are Mylasa^, a free town, and that 

 of Antiochia**, on the site of the former towns of Sym- 

 majthos and Cranaos : it is now surrounded by the rivers

 CludroSjthe river Glaucus'', the town of Lysias andOrthosa", 



^ Its niins are to be seen at the port called Giamishlu. This was a 

 Dorian colony on the coast of Caria, founded probably on the site of the

 in the Roman civd wars by Labienus. Its ruins are very extensive. 



'** Hamilton has fixed tlie site of tliis place between four and five miles 

 south-east of Kuyuja, near the mouth of the valley of the Kara-Su. The 

 sm-rounchng district was famous for the excellence of its figs. The city 

 was built by Antiochus, the son of Seleucus.
