Ancient Cilician city in Adana Province, Turkey
A Cilician city with some pre-Roman structures. Named Caesarea when it became part of the Roman Empire and then Justinopolis in 525 CE by the Byzantine emperor, Justin I.
A triumphal arch, the colonnades of two streets, a gymnasium, a stadium and a theatre are the main features remaining. The city was watered by three now very ruined aqueducts.
