398 XI. APAMEIA.

graphy of the city rests upon the right understanding of the five chief
streams that rise in the valley. On this subject discord reigns among
the authorities. We must therefore begin with the rivers, and the
interesting questions of mythology, literature, and history connected
with them. The subject has been discussed by many explorers,
Arundel i8a6, Hamilton 1836, Waddington 1850, G. Hirschfeld 1872,
Hogarth 1887, and Weber 18921. Since 1888 the problem has occupied
my attention a good deal; and the following theory, which owes some-
thing to each of these travellers and differs from all in some respects,
will, I hope, be found to unite whatever is good in their views.

A necessary preliminary to the investigation is to fix the acropolis
of Kelainai; and, fortunately, there is general agreement that no other
hill can be thought of except the one a little behind the modern town,
on the east, with the ruins of an early church on the top.

The clear and precise truthfulness of Strabo's description of Apameia
makes him our best authority, and stamps him as an eye-witness.
Next to him in direct value comes Xenophon. Pliny deserves the
third place ; though not an eye-witness, he has used some excellent
authority, probably a Greek. But so striking are the natural features
that every ancient authority (except Nicetas Chon. and J. Cinnamus)
gives a recognizable and useful account; and the following theory
gathers something from them all, and sets them in a more favourable
light than previous views.

According to Strabo, the Marsyas, a violent and headlong stream,
which rises in Apameia itself, flows through the city, descends to the
suburbs, and there meets the Maeander, which has previously been
joined by the Orgas, a stream that flows, gentle and quiet, through
the level plain2.

A coin of Apameia, struck under Gordian, TTA- BAKXIOY- nANH •
AnAM£nN, is also a fundamental witness. It shows the goddess,
patroness of Apameia, in form closely resembling the Ephesian Artemis,
but with a small tetrastyle temple surmounting her usual head-
