Former populated places in Turkey
Maeandropolis or Maiandroupolis (Ancient Greek: Μαιανδρούπολις), also known as Maeandrus or Maiandros (Μαίανδρος), was a town of ancient Ionia in the territory of Magnesia on the Maeander.[1] Its name reflects association with the Maeander River, on which it was situated. It was a member of the Delian League.[2]
Its site is tentatively located near Söke, Aydın Province, Turkey.[3][4]
