MARCH OF MANLIUS. 247 



to Livy's account of the march of the Consul 

 Manlius, affords a clue.* The Roman army 

 inarched from Cibyra through the territory of 

 the Sindians, and, having crossed the river Cau- 

 lares, halted. The next day the Consul led his 

 troops along the side of the marsh Caralis, and 

 halted at Mandropolis, whence he marched upon 

 Lagon, the inhabitants of which fled from fear. 

 Hence they went from the source of the Lysis 

 to the river Colobatus, or Cobulatus, and there 

 met a deputation from Isionda, which city was 

 besieged by the Termessians. Fixing Lagon 

 at Evdeer Khan, and recognizing the two rivers, 

 Lysis and Colobatus in two streams, seen by 

 Mr. Daniell, during one of his subsequent jour- 

 neys, higher up the plain, the ruins of Man- 

 dropolis should be somewhere on the mountain 

 route between the site of Cibyra and the Termes- 

 sian pass. It will be seen hereafter that the 

 ruins of Cibyra are at Horzoom, and that on 

 the direct route from Horzoom to Stenez is a 

 great marsh, answering exactly to the descrip- 

 tion and position of Caralis. The only ancient 

 site of importance, between that marsh and the 

 Termessian pass, is that at Stenez. To it,
