Latmus or Latmos (Ancient Greek: Λάτμος) was a town of ancient Caria.[1] It was a polis (city-state) and a member of the Delian League.[2]
Strabo writes that it was also known as "Heracleia below Latmus" (Ancient Greek: Ἡράκλεια ἡ ὑπὸ Λάτμῳ).,[3]
Its site is located near Heraclea ad Latmum, Asiatic Turkey.[1][4]
