Adler number: kappa,384
Translated headword: Karthaia, Carthaea
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
A certain place.
Greek Original:
*ka/rqaia: to/pos tis.
Notes:
More precisely, one of the four poleis on the Aegean island of Keos. See generally OCD(4) s.v. Ceos; and cf. under beta 59.
'A certain place' is unnecessarily tentative; Stephanus of Byzantium rightly classifies it as a polis; and cf. Strabo 10.5.6.
