Loryma
Loryma () was an ancient town and episcopal see in the Roman province of Caria, in Asia Minor (Anatolia, Asian Turkey). It is now now listed as a titular see.〔''Annuario Pontificio 2013'' (Libreria Editrice Vaticana 2013 ISBN 978-88-209-9070-1), p. 918〕 == Location ==
Loryma was a small fortified town and harbour on the coast of Caria, not far from Cape Cynossema, at the western extremity of the peninsula known as Rhodian Chersonesus, opposite to and twenty Roman miles from Rhodes island.〔(Sophrone Pétridès, "Loryma" in ''Catholic Encyclopedia'' (New York 1910) )〕 Its ruins, west of Port Aplothiki, with towers, tombs and ramparts are described by William Martin Leake (''Asia Minor'', 223).〔(William Smith, ''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography'' (1854) )〕 Above the bay of Loryma (modern Bozuk Bükü) lie the ruins of a curtain wall surrounding the top of the hill. Constructed from large blocks of stone shaped in-situ, the remaining walls (up to several metres high on the outside) retain very precise corners and sheer faces.
