Drypia ({{lang-gr|Δρυπία}}), also Dripeia (Δριπεία) or Grypes (Γρύπες), was a Byzantine-era settlement and rural suburb of Constantinople. LocalizationIn his studies on the topography of Constantinople, Raymond Janin identified the site with the locality of Ayazmaderesi, some {{convert|14|km|mi}} west of the Theodosian Walls,{{sfn|Janin|1964|p=445}} but this is rejected by Andreas Külzer, who identifies it—via the later corrupted form Grypes—with the modern Istanbul district of Bağcılar.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} HistoryIn early Byzantine times, the settlement was known for its church dedicated to Thomas the Apostle, established in the late 4th century.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} In late 398, Empress Aelia Eudoxia ordered the translation of the relics of several unnamed saints to Dripya, which was done in a long procession from the Hagia Sophia. This was the occasion for a homily by John Chrysostom, then the Archbishop of Constantinople.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}}{{sfn|Allen|Mayer|2002|pp=85–92}} The church is no longer mentioned in later times, and was probably destroyed in a raid during the 6th century.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} Thus already in 559, taking advantage of the destruction of parts of the Anastasian Wall during an earthquake two years before, the Kutrigurs raided the suburbs of Constantinople, including Drypia.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} The settlement continued to be inhabited as shown by a fragmentary funeral inscription dating to the 8th/9th century,{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} but the site is next mentioned only in historical accounts by George Pachymeres for 1299, when Emperor Andronikos II Palaiologos spent a few days in the village during his journey west to Thessalonica,{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} and again for 1304, when Andronikos' son and co-emperor Michael IX Palaiologos also stopped there on his return from campaigning against the Ottoman Turks.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} Finally, a 1323 document of the Hilandar Monastery of Mount Athos mentions two local landowners, John Ktenas and Angelitzes Karyanites.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} A church dedicated to St. George, which existed on the site in 1798, probably had a Byzantine antecedent. It also featured a chapel with a hagiasma (holy spring) dedicated to John the Forerunner.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} Similar springs dedicated to the Transfiguration of Christ and to Saint Photini are attested in the vicinity during the 19th century.{{sfn|Külzer|2008|p=340}} ReferencesSources
