Settlement of ancient Pamphylia

Open on map Back to Antalya list

Magydus (Ancient Greek: Μάγυδος, romanized: Magydos) was a city and bishopric of ancient Pamphylia on the Mediterranean coast of southwestern Asia Minor. It is probably the same as Mygdale (Μυγδάλη) described in the Stadiasmus Maris Magni.

Its site was probably at modern Lara (Antalya province), where there are ruins of a small artificial harbour.
