Cypsela

Western Asia

Cypsela, also spelled Kypsela, was an ancient Greek town on the river Hebrus in ancient Thrace, in what is now northwestern Turkey. It was once an important stop on the Via Egnatia, and its citizens surrendered during a siege by the Seleucid king Antiochus, becoming his allies.
