Tichiussa
Τειχιοῦσσα
Tichiussa (Τειχιοῦσσα), is mentioned twice by Thucydides (8.26, 28) as a fortified place in Caria in the territory of Miletus. Stephanus B. speaks of it under the name of Τειχιόεσσα, and Athenaeus knew it under the name of Τειχιοῦς (viii. p. 351.) It seems to have been situated on the north coast of the bay of Iassus.
