Holmi

Asia

Holmi, also called Holmoi or Holmia, was a Greek town of Cilicia Tracheia with a harbor, situated near modern Tasucu in Turkey's Mersin province, a little southwest of the larger city of Seleucia ad Calycadnum. When Seleucia ad Calycadnum was founded, the inhabitants of Holmi migrated there, ending Holmi as an independent settlement; the town is recorded in the works of Pliny, Strabo, and Stephanus of Byzantium.
