ΕΛΒΙΡΑ (Πόλη) ΑΝΔΑΛΟΥΣΙΑ
Illiberis (Ptol. ii. 4.11), or Illiberi Liberini (Plin. iii. 1. s. 3), one of the chief cities of the Turduli, in Hispania Baetica, between the Baetis and the coast, is identified by inscriptions with Granada. It is probably the Elibyrge (Eliburge) of Stephanus Byzantinus.
ΓΑΛΕΡΑ (Πόλη) ΓΡΑΝΑΔΑ
Tutugi (Galera) Granada, Spain.
An Iberian city near Huescar in NE Granada. The burial chambers in its necropoleis have yielded eight Greek kraters belonging to the group of Polygnotos, of the Munich Painter, of the Painter of the Battle of the Griffins of Oxford, and the Painter of the Black Thyrsos; also three kylikes, two of them Attic (two from the 5th c. B.C., the other from the 4th), and two pelikes from the beginning of the 4th c. in the Kertch style. There are also two rectangular urns with animals lying on the covers and scenes on the sides, one of which shows Greek influence. Most of the finds are in the National Archaeological Museum of Madrid.
ΓΚΟΥΑΝΤΙΧ (Πόλη) ΑΝΔΑΛΟΥΣΙΑ
Acci (Guadix) Granada, Spain.
Town 59 km NE of Granada, whose modern name comes from the Arabic Wadi-Aci. Pliny
refers to it as Colonia Accitana Gemellensis (3.25), adding that it possessed
Italic law from the time of its founding. Ptolemy (2.6) calls it Akkiand locates
it among the Bastetani. The Antonine Itinerary (402.1; 404.6) calls it Acci. On
the inscriptions (CIL II, 3391, 3393-94) it appears as Colonia Iulia Gemella Accis,
and on coins as Col(onia) Iul(ia) Gem(ella) Acci; the abbreviations L I II refer
to Legions I and II, whose veterans were settled there. The name Gemella comes
from these two legions. It was founded to guard the mountainous area in which
it was located. Until the reform of Augustus (7-2 B.C.) it was part of Baetica,
but was then transferred to Tarraconensis.
Its establishment as a colony has been attributed to Caesar or Octavius
because of the name Iulia and the fact that it lacked an epithet referring to
Augustus. However, not all the places founded by Augustus bear a name referring
to him and, moreover, the name Iulia was employed by Augustus before 27. Most
likely it was founded by Lepidus in 42 B.C. in the name of Octavius. It has not
been excavated.

ΕΛΒΙΡΑ (Πόλη) ΑΝΔΑΛΟΥΣΙΑ
Iliberris (Elvira) Granada, Spain. The exact location of this Baetic town W of Granada is not known and there is no archaeological evidence. About A.D. 309 19 bishops and 24 presbyters met here in a Council which promulgated 81 canons, notably no. 36, prohibiting images and paintings in the churches.
ΜΠΑΖΑ (Πόλη) ΓΡΑΝΑΔΑ
Basti (Baza) Granada, Spain.
Town ca. 50 km NE of Guadix, mentioned in the Antonine Itinerary (401.8), on several occasions by Strabo, and in Livy (37.46.7) in connection with a Roman defeat by the Bastetani. it was an episcopal see during the Early Christian and Visigoth periods. The iberian cemetery has yielded a large number of Greek vases, indicating that it was used during the 5th and 3d c. B.C. Recent finds inchide the so-called Lady of Baza, a seated Iberian figure still bearing traces of polychrome and dating from the 4th c. B.C.
