Cyptasia

Κυπτασία

Cyptasia (Κυπτασία), a place on the coast of Asia Minor (Ptol. 5.4), apparently the same which the Table places 7 miles from Sinope on the road to Amisus, under the name of Cloptasa. Hamilton (Researches, &c. vol. i. p. 306) supposes that it may be a place on the coast now called Chobanlar.
