tain. Xext comes the Promontory of Cragus and beyond it a gulf-, equal to the one that comes before it ; upon it are Pinara^, and Telmessus"*, the frontier town of Lycia. Lycia formerly contained seventy towns, now it has but thirty-six. Of these, the most celebrated, besides those already mentioned, are Canas^ Candyba, so celebrated for the Qi^nian Grove, Podalia, Choma, past which the river ^desa flows, Cyanese^, Ascandalis, Amelas, Noscopium, Tlos^ and Telaudrus^. It includes also in the interior the district of Cabalia, the three cities of which are (Enianda, Balbura^, and Bubon^". it Arsinoe, but it still remained better known by its old name. This place was visited by St. Paul, who tlience took sliip for Phcenicia. See Acts xxi. 1. 1 This was more properly the name of a mountain district of Lycia. Strabo speaks of Cragus, a mountain with eight summits, and a city of the same name. Beaufort thinks that Yedy-Eooroon, the Seven Capes, a group of high and rugged mountains, appear to have been the ancient ]Iount Cragus of Lycia. 2 Probably the Gulf of Macri, equal in size to the Gulf of Satalia, which is next to it. 3 This place lay in the interior at the base of Cragxis, and its ruins are still to be seen on the east side of the range, about Imlf-way between Telmessus and the termination of the range on the south coast. ^ Its ruins are to be seen at Mei, or the modem port of Macri. 5 Its site is unknown. That of Candyba lias been ascertained to be a place called Gendevar, east of the Xantlius, and a few miles from the coast. Its rock-tombs are said to be beautifully executed. The ffinian grove or forest, it has been suggested, may still be recognized in the extensive pine forest that now covers the mountain above the city. The sites of Podalia and Glioma seem to be unknown. ^ In some editions "Cyane." Leake says that this place was discovered to the west of Anch'iaca by Cockcrell. It ap])ears from Scott and Ft)rbes's account of Lycia, that three sites have been found between port Tristorus and the inland valley of Kassabar, which from the inscriptions appeared anciently to have borne tliis name, Yarvoo, Gliiouristan, and Toussa. The former is the chief place and is covered with ruins of the Roman and middle-age construction. At Gliiouristan lliere are Lycian rock-tombs. 7 Its ruins are to be seen near the modern Doover, in the interior of Lycia, about two miles and a half east of the river Xanthus. Of the three places previously mentioned the sites apjjcar to be unknown. 8 Mentioned by the geograjiher Stephanus as being in Caria. 9 Its site is fixed at Katara, on both sides of the Katara Su, the most northern braneli of the Xanthus. Tlu; ruins are vory considerable, lying on both sides of the stream. Ualbura is a neuter phiral. It lay to the west of Balbura, near a place now called Ebajik, on a
