Paul and his company, loosing from Paphos, sailed north-west and came to Perga, the capital of Pamphylia (Acts 13:13, 14), a province about the middle of the southern sea-board of Asia Minor.  It lay between Lycia on the west and Cilicia on the east.  There were strangers from Pamphylia at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost (2:10).
