Aspendos

There are several versions of the foundation of the city, and the date seems to have been during the 5th century BC. A tradition dating back to antiquity holds that this polis was founded by Argos. Another tradition indicates its membership of the Delian League (5th century). It lay on a plain below the Taurus mountains, beside the river Eurymedon in Pamphylia, Asia Minor, and in antiquity was accessible from the sea. In 333 there were walls around the acropolis as well as the lower town. No remains of urban structures have been found.
