Cilla (city)

Western Asia

Cilla, also called Killa, was a town of ancient Aeolis and later Mysia in what is now Turkey, mentioned by Homer in the Iliad alongside the cities of Chryse and Tenedos. Herodotus counted it among the eleven old Aeolian cities of Asia, and it was home to a temple of Apollo Cillaeus and a member of the Delian League, though the exact site of the town has never been discovered.
