History of Dor, - 63 



are far from our Dor, and it would require much more conclusive 

 evidence than has yet been brought forward to establish a probabil- 

 ity that we are to look south of Mt. Carmel for the city named by 

 Craterus\ It may be that settlements of Greek Dorians in Caria 

 led Craterus to speak of a city Doros that had no real existence. 

 It is far more probable, however, that the Dorians actually had in 

 Caria a city Doros, since the name is not uncommon. It seems 

 best, therefore, to reject the assumption that Phoenician Dor is 

 intended in the passage under discussion. 



APOLLODORUS. 



Apollodorus, an Athenian grammarian who lived c. 140 B.C.", is 

 quoted by Stephanus Byzantinus^ as follows : 



*A7roAAo8a)pos 8c Awpov KaAct cv XpovLKiov 8' " els Awpov ovaav iTridaXar-

*'And Apollodorus mentions Dor in the fourth (book of his) 

 Chronica: 'To Dor which is a maritime city.' " 



ARTEMIDORUS OF EPHESUS. 



From Artemidorus of Ephesus, a geographer who wrote c.103 

 B.C., we have a fragment in which Dor is mentioned in connection 

 with Strato's Tower (later Caesarea) and Mt. Carmel. The pas- 

 sage reads* :

 (AbhandluDgen der Berliner Akad., 1869), p. 207, cites from another Athen- 

 ian tribute-list Ke?Jv6eptg (on the Cilician coast opposite Cyprus) to prove 

 that Athenian influence reached far towards Syria. But this city is too 

 remote from the Phoenician Dor to establish his contention.
