About Cyaneae
Cyaneae (Ancient Greek: Κυανέαι, [ky.a.né.ai̯]; Lycian: 𐊜𐊂𐊀𐊏 Xban-), also spelled Kyaneai or Cyanae, was a town of ancient Lycia, or perhaps three towns known collectively by the name. Leake observes that in some copies of Pliny it is written Cyane; in Hierocles and the Notitiae Episcopatuum it is Cyaneae.
To Spratt and Forbes, Cyaneae appeared to be a city ranking in importance with Phellus and Candyba, but in a better state of preservation. No longer a residential bishopric, Cyanae is today listed by the Catholic Church as a titular see.
Pausanias wrote that the oracle of Apollo Thyrxeus (Ἀπόλλων Θυρξεύς) was there.
