Cities of ancient Lycia

Crya or Krya (Шаблон:Lang-gr; also Carya) was a city of ancient Lycia and was a polis (city-state) and a member of the Delian League.[1]

Its exact location is not known, but it is located near Taşyaka, Muğla Province, Turkey.[2][3]

Stephanus of Byzantium quotes the first book of the Epitome of Artemidorus: "...and there are also other islands of the Cryeis, Carysis and Alina".[4]

Pliny who may have had the same or similar reference, calls it Cryeon tres, by which he means that there were three islands off or near to Crya; but he does not name them.[5] Pliny places Crya in Caria, and he mentions it after Daedala, under the name of Crya fugitivorum.[6] According to his description it is on the gulf of Glaucus. The Stadiasmus Maris Magni places it, under the name Шаблон:Lang, 160 stadia from Telmissus to the west. Pomponius Mela speaks merely of a promontorium Crya.[7] In Ptolemy the name is written "Carya", and it is assigned to Lycia.
