Yavu (Xbahñ - Kyaneai)

data access 10969

Cyanae was an ancient Lycian village 30 km west of Kaş-Antiphellos on a plateau with a rocky slope to the north descending very steeply to the plain of Yavu below.

According to Pausanias ''This water partakes to this extent of truth, but close to Cyaneae by Lycia, where there is an oracle of Apollo Thyrxeus, the water shows to him who looks into the spring all the things that he wants to behold. By the grove in Patrae are also two sanctuaries of Serapis. In one is the tomb of Aegyptus, the son of Belus. He is said by the people of Patrae to have fled to Aroe because of the misfortunes of his children and because he shuddered at the mere name of Argos, and even more through dread of Danaus''1
