词条 | Arsinoe (Northwest Cyprus) |
释义 |
Arsinoe (Greek: {{lang|grc|Ἀρσινόη}}) was an ancient city in northwestern Cyprus built on top of the older city, Marion[1] (Greek: {{lang|grc|Μάριον}});[2] some ancient writers conflate the two cities. Ptolemy I Soter destroyed the town of Marion in 312 BCE and removed some inhabitants to Paphos.[3] The city was refounded by Ptolemy Philadelphus and named after his sister/wife Arsinoe. According to Strabo there was a grove sacred to Zeus.[4] Cyprus, from its subjection to the kings of the Lagid family, had more than one city of this name, which was common to several princesses of that house; see Arsinoe for other cities so named. The site of Arsinoe is located near modern Polis tis Khrysokhou.[5][6] References1. ^http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.04.0006:id=marion {{DGRG|title=Arsinoe}}{{coord|35.034889|N|32.421841|E|display=title|format=dms|source:http://dare.ht.lu.se/places/22729}}{{cyprus-geo-stub}}{{Europe-hist-stub}}2. ^T⊘nnes Bekker‐Nielsen (1999): Strabo and Ptolemy on the geography of western cyprus, Symbolae Osloenses: Norwegian Journal of Greek and Latin Studies, 74:1, 151-162, DOI: 10.1080/00397679908590960 3. ^{{Cite Diodorus|19.89}} 4. ^{{Cite Strabo|xiv. p. 683}} 5. ^{{Cite Barrington|72}} 6. ^{{Cite DARE|22729}} 4 : Cities in ancient Cyprus|Former populated places in Cyprus|Ptolemaic colonies|Populated places in ancient Cyprus |
