Caracalla, 28 January 198 - 8 April 217 A.D., Mylasa, Caria
|Roman| |Asia|, |Caracalla,| |28| |January| |198| |-| |8| |April| |217| |A.D.,| |Mylasa,| |Caria|, Mylasa is today Milas, in Mugla Province in southwestern Turkey. Mylasa suffered great damage when it was taken by Labienus in the Roman Civil War in 40 B.C., but it regained prosperity and was frequently mentioned by ancient writers. At the time of Strabo the city boasted two remarkable orators, Euthydemos and Hybreas. Various inscriptions tell us that the Phrygian cults were represented there by the worship of Sabazios; the Egyptian, by that of Isis and Osiris. There was also a temple of Nemesis.
