ΝΙΚΑΙΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
Leucas (Leukas), a place in Bithynia, on the river Gallus, in the
south of Nicaea, is mentioned only by Anna Comnena (p. 470), but can be easily
identified, as its name Lefke is still borne by a neat little town in the middle
of the beautiful valley of the Gallus. (Leake, Asia Minor, pp. 12, 13.)
ΜΙΛΗΤΟΠΟΛΙΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑ
Miletopolitis Lacus (Miletoupolitis limne), a lake in the north-west
of Mysia, deriving its name from the town of Miletopolis, near its western shore.
(Strab. xii. pp. 575, 576.) According to Pliny (v. 40) the lake also bore the
name Artynia, and probably confounding the river Tarsius with the Rhyndacus, he
erroneously describes the latter river as having its origin in the lake, whereas,
in fact, the Rhyndacus enters the lake in the south, and issues from it in the
north. It now bears the name of the lake of Maniyas (Hamilton, Researches, &c.,
vol. ii. p. 105, &c.)
