History

Apollonia is not mentioned by ancient historians. The pillar tombs in the necropolis to the north of the city attest to a Lycian origin of the settlement, and date to Шаблон:Circa.Шаблон:Sfn

During the period when the region was under Roman control, the city was part of a local federation, or sympoliteia, that comprised Simena, Isinda and Aperlae. Led by Aperlae, it had one vote in the Lycian League.Шаблон:Sfn

The ruins of a Byzantine church possibly date to the 6th or 7th century AD, so the city was still occupied at that time.Шаблон:Sfn
