GENERAL KOEHLER'S ROUTE. 225 



Adalia to Shugut, an account of which is given 

 by Colonel Leake.* That traveller, taking a 

 north course through the plain, reached a pass 

 where there were considerable remains of a 

 fortified city ; from the coincidence of the for- 

 tified pass, and the quantity of ruins described 

 by him, these have consequently been looked 

 upon by modern geographers as the unquestion- 

 able site of Termessus. But from the know- 

 ledge we had now obtained of the features of 

 the country, we were led to believe that these 

 ruins of Koehler's were much too far to the north, 

 to be the "Termessus the Greater 99 of Strabo and 

 others. Besides which, they were situated at the 

 foot of the pass, which does not at all agree with 

 the recorded site of Termessus on a high mountain. 



We were therefore glad to find a pass leading 

 to the upland of Lycia, much to the south of 

 that leading to Karabunar, in which ruins were 

 said to exist, but of their extent we could learn 

 nothing satisfactory. 



April 25**.— We left Adalia for the Gulelook 

 Pass, our course being to the north-west. Tra- 

 velling by the Pachas road over the arid plain 

 for about four miles, we came to a solitary coffee-
