Arsinoe ({{lang-grc|Ἀρσινόη}}), sometimes called Arsinoe Epidires, was an ancient city of the Avalitæ, at Dire promontory in Eritrea, north of Berenice Epideires, and near the entrance of the Red Sea (Bab-el-Mandeb). The city was founded by Ptolemy II and named for Arsinoe II of Egypt, his wife and sister. Its location is near the modern-day city of Asseb, in Eritrea.[1][2][3][4][5]References1. ^{{Cite Strabo|xvi. p. 773}} 2. ^{{Cite Mela|3.8}} 3. ^{{Cite Pliny|6.34}} 4. ^{{Cite Ptolemy|4.5.14}} 5. ^{{Cite Barrington|4}}
