Abstract

The city of Anazarbos is located 60 km. northeast of modern Adana, close to a hill that rises more than 220 m. above the Çukurova plain1. Below the plain there used to stand a Roman city covering an area of 101 hectares. If we agree with Gough2, we can recognize the ancient settlement of Kyinda as Anazarbos, a site that was occupied since the 7th century B.C.3. Only very traces of the city from the pre-Roman times are preserved, but in recent years the site investigations have increased our knowledge about the Hellenistic development of Anazarbos4.
