Canae (Ancient Greek : Κάναι ; Turkish : Kane ) was, in classical antiquity , a city in ancient Aeolis , on the island of Argennusa in the Aegean Sea off the modern Dikili Peninsula on the coast of modern-day Turkey , near the modern village of Bademli .[1] [2] Battle of Arginusae in 406 B.C.[1] [3] [4]
Canae is mentioned by the ancient writers Herodotus , Strabo , Pliny , Livy , Ptolemy , Sappho , Thucydides , and Mela .[5] [6]
History
[ edit ]
According to the first-century Greek geographer Strabo , Canae was founded by Locrians coming from Cynus in eastern Greece.[5] [7] Argennusa (also spelt Arginusa), beside a small promontory hill variously called Mount Cane (Ancient Greek : Κάνη ), Aega (Αἰγᾶ), or Argennon (Ἄργεννον).[5] [7] [8] Garip and Kalem was called Canaea.[5]
According to the 5th-century B.C. Greek historian Herodotus, the massive Achaemenid army of Xerxes I passed Mount Cane on its way from Sardis to the Battle of Thermopylae in 480 B.C.[5] [9] [10]
During the Peloponnesian War , an Athenian fleet commanded by eight strategoi unexpectedly defeated a Spartan fleet under Callicratidas off the coast of Canae in 406 B.C. in the Battle of Arginusae .[6]
During the Roman–Seleucid War , fought between the Roman Republic and Antiochus the Great in 192–188 B.C., the Roman navy wintered in Canae on their way to Chios.[5] Livy writes that "the ships were hauled on shore and surrounded with a trench and rampart."[11]
By the time of Pliny the Elder in the first century A.D., the city was deserted.[5] [12]
