Heraclea at Latmus or Heraclea under Latmus (Ancient Greek: Ἡράκλεια πρὸς Λάτμῳ or Ἡράκλεια ὑπὸ Λάτμῳ, romanized: Herakleia pros Latmo or Herakleia hupo Latmo; Latin: Heraclea ad Latmum), or simply Heraclea or Herakleia (Ἡράκλεια), also transliterated as Heracleia, was an ancient town situated at the western foot of Mount Latmus, on the border between Caria and Ionia in southwestern Asia Minor (modern Turkey). The site, now occupied by the modern village of Kapıkırı, stands on the shore of Lake Bafa, which in antiquity was part of the Gulf of Latmus before it was silted up by deposits from the river Maeander.[1][2] Substantial remains of the city and its fortifications still survive.
