Cybeleia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ancient Ionian city
Cybeleia or Kybeleia (Ancient Greek: Κυβέλεια)[1] or Cybellia[2] was a city of ancient Ionia. Strabo, after saying that the mountain Mimas is between Erythrae and the Hypocremnus, adds, "then a village Cybellia, and the promontory Melaena." This is all that is known.
Its site is tentatively located near the modern Badembükü.[3][4]
