Ledra was established in 1050 BC. It became a city-kingdom by the seventh century BC.[2] At times, it had been subject to Assyrian rule.[3] Ledra was one of ten Cypriot kingdoms listed on the prism (many-sided tablet) of the Assyrian king Esarhaddon (680–669 BC). The only known king of Ledra is Onasagoras, mentioned in this tablet for paying tribute to Esarhaddon.[4] By Hellenistic times (330 BC) it had dwindled to a small village. An account suggested that it lost its city-kingdom status because it consolidated with other such kingdoms to form stronger territorial units.[5] In 280 BC, Ledra became Leukotheon while the Byzantines started referring to it as Lefkon or "poplar grove".[6] During the fourth century AD, it became a bishopric and was renamed Lefkosia.[2] It eventually became the capital of Nicosia under this name during the 10th century.[2] Ledra Street in Nicosia is named after Ledra.[7]References1. ^{{cite journal|title=Reviews of Books (Alexander the Great)|journal=The American Historical Review|date=June 1974|first=Truesdell|last=Brown|coauthors=|volume=79|issue=3|pages=762–763|id= |format=|jstor=1867909|doi=10.2307/1867909}} {{Ancient Cities of Cyprus}}{{Cyprus-geo-stub}}{{Europe-hist-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{Cite book|title=Historical Dictionary of Cyprus|last=Mirbagheri|first=Farid|publisher=Scarecrow Press|year=2010|isbn=9780810855267|location=Lanham, MD|pages=119}} 3. ^World and its Peoples: Greece and the Eastern Balkans.
