Halikarnas

Halikarnas ( ,  ) —  Kiçik Asiyanın Aralıq dənizi sahilində, Kariyada qədim şəhər.Livius.org Halicarnassus/Bodrum  "Usually, Greek settlers first occupied an island near a native settlement; later, they settled on the mainland. We may assume that the first Greeks built their houses on the island that was later known as the Royal Island. Today, it is no longer an island, but an impressive castle built in the age of the Crusades. The native settlement probably was at the Salmacis hill, which was crowned by a sanctuary of Hermaphroditus.", "Later, the Greeks settled on the mainland. To the northeast of the island, they founded a marketplace to trade with the natives. The new Greek settlement itself was to the northwest.", "The Greeks thought that Halicarnassus was a "Dorian" city: its first settlers were from the Peloponnese and belonged to this tribe. The city was really proud of this descent, but in fact, the Dorian nature of the population was soon forgotten."

E.ə. VIII əsr və ya IV əsrin ortalarında yunan köçkünləri tərəfindən qurulmuşdur. Qısa müddət ərzində Kariyanın paytaxtı olmuşdur. Hazırda Türkiyənin kurort şəhəri Bodrum onun xarabalıqları üzərində yerləşir.
