KINIK (Xanthos)

The age-old Lyrian basic of Xanthos is 18 km arctic of Patara abreast the Esen River. The theatre. Harpy Tomb, Nereid Monument, agora, and an inscribed cairn are of interest, as are a admixture of charcoal from Lycian, Roman and Byzantine times. At the Lycian cultic centermost of Letoon, 6 km farther, there are three temples committed to Leto, Apollo and Artemis, accustomed gods of Anatolian mythology.
