Agdistis Sanctuary (Yazılıkaya)
A plateau around a monumental Phrygian rock‐cut altar at the extensive fortified settlement and sanctuary complex of Yazılıkaya in Turkey. Associated with Agdistis in the 20th century because of Roman epigraphic finds there, more recent excavations have demonstrated that the sanctuary was in use from the 8th–7th century BCE to the Roman Period (1st-2nd century CE). Continuity of ritual practice in front of the rock-cut altar is demonstrated by rock-cut bows, a ritual preparation area with hearths, a rock-cut statue identifiable as the goddess Matar, and the Roman-era votive inscriptions.

Ancyra (Phrygia)
An ancient settlement of Phrygia, near the origin of the Mekestos river. Heavily spoliated, especially since the mid-19th century, and now cultivated, a Byzantine fortress on the hill immediately east of modern Boğazköy in Turkey's Kütahya province is uniformly identified with this ancient Ankyra. Many modern commentators have adopted the name "Ancyra Sidera" on the basis of an entry for a bishop in Latin and Syriac versions of the attendees the Council of Chalcedon (missing from the Greek witnesses), but Price 2010 asserts it may be a corruption of a lost original entry for a bishop of "Ancyra and Synaos".

Belmina
Mentioned in ancient sources, this settlement of ancient Arcadia was perhaps a polis during the Classical period. It lay near the border with Laconia and Shipley argues it was seized and controlled by Sparta from the mid-sixth to fourth centuries BCE, again in the third century, and from the mid-to-late second century BCE well into the Roman imperial period. Its precise location is uncertain, but there are multiple candidate sites on the slopes of modern Mt. Chelmos (atop which the Athenaion fort stood) in the vicinity of modern Skortsinos and modern Giakoumaiika (enumerated by Shipley 2000 on page 373 note 45).

Chimaira
Strabo places the myth of the Lycian monster Chimaira in the Kragos mountains, noting a nearby chasm or ravine (φάραγξ) named after the monster that he says extends up from the shore. BAtlas 65 places the label "Chimaera" along the low pass between the Kragos and Antikragos, i.e., from the modern Sancaklık Koyu (where the ancient settlement of Kalabantia was located) to roughly the area of the modern village of Boğaziçi in Turkey's Seydikemer district (Muğla Province). A western neighborhood of that village, Avlan, preserves the modern name of the ravine identified in RE Kragos 1, "Tal von Alwan" (sic) and in BAtlDir: "Avlan valley".

Gulf of Saint Eufemia
A number of ancient names were used to identify the modern Gulf of Saint Euphemia off the west Calabrian coast of Italy: "Vibonensis sinus", "Hipponiates kolpos", and "Terinaeus sinus" (as well as its Greek equivalent "Terinaios kolpos"). A passage in Aristotle's Politics uses the unrelated Greek name "Lametikos Kolpos" for the same gulf, or at least its northern extent near the mouth of the ancient Lametus (modern Amato) river. The BAtlas treated this name as separate from the others in labeling the map, and the distinction has been maintained in the Pleiades gazetteer by using two separate (but connected) place resources.
Modifications: Added link to RE reference. Modified summary. Changed name type to 'associated modern'. Adjusted romanization. Created new connection. Modified summary; modified place type = bay; modified title. Added Cicero reference (moved from Lametikos Kolpos). Created new name.

Isin
Isin (modern Ishan al-Bahriyat), a city located 107 km southeast of Babylon and 27 km south of Nippur, was an important cult center of the healing goddess Gula (who was also called Ninisinna, the “Lady of Isin”). Its principal religious structure was called Egalmah, which was rebuilt during the long reign of the Neo-Babylonian ruler Nebuchadnezzar II (r. 604–562 BC). The Sumerian ceremonial names of a few other temples in this city are known. Although Isin was founded as late as the Early Dynastic Period, possibly already in the Ubaid period, and its main cult remained active until at least the end of the Neo-Babylonian Empire (625–539 BC), the city held brief authority over southern Mesopotamia only twice in its long history. The First Dynasty of Isin, under its fifteen kings, was the dominant power from the collapse of the Ur III state until Isin’s chief rival Larsa became the most dominate city-state (ca. 2017–1924 BC) The Second Dynasty of Isin, under its eleven kings, held authority over Babylonia from ca. 1157 BC to 1026 BC, when it was supplanted by the Second Dynasty of the Sealand.

Kromna
An ancient settlement located between Kenchreai and Korinth. Archaeological survey and excavation reveal a rich record of human occupation from the Neolithic period onward in the area around modern Hexamilia.

Demetrios), with a possible subsequent Roman-era shift to the southwest around Monastiraki.

Labinios (river)
Reported by multiple ancient sources in the context of a meeting between Octavian and Antony in 43 BCE, the Lavinius appears to have been a left-hand tributary of the ancient Rhenus (the modern Reno in Italy's Po watershed). Sources place the island venue of the meeting relative to Bononia and/or Mutina (RE after Nissen). BAtlDir tentatively equates the modern Samoggia with the Lavinius, but on BAtlas 40 the label "Lavinius?" is applied to a "torrente" that OSM names "Lavinius" (sic), the "Samoggia" in OSM being a separate "torrente" to the west that remains unlabeled in BAtlas 40. No Latin source appears to have preserved the name.

Lametikos Kolpos
The name "Lametikos Kolpos" is given by Aristotle in a passage of the Politics to the body of water into which the river Lametus (modern Amato in Calabria, Italy) flows, i.e., the modern-day Gulf of Saint Euphemia (Italian: Golfo di Santa Eufemia or Golfo di Sant'Eufemia). Other ancient sources provide several other names for the same modern gulf, but BAtlas treated this one as separate, placing the label for "Lametikos Kolpos" in the north in the immediate vicinity of the river mouth and the other primary label (Vibonensis Sinus) more centrally in the southern half.

Larsa
Larsa (modern Tell as-Senkereh), a city located ca. 21 km east of Uruk, was an important southern Mesopotamian cult center of the sun-god (Utu/Šamaš). Its principal religious structure was called Ebabbar, just like the Šamaš temple in the northern Babylonian city of Sippar. The Sumerian ceremonial names of some of Larsa’s other religious buildings are mentioned in two first-millennium-BC lists of ziggurats and some royal inscriptions, especially from the Isin-Larsa Period (ca. 2025–1763 BC) — when the city of Larsa temporarily became a dominant political power (ca. 1924–1763 BC) — and the Neo-Babylonian Period. The most important of these, at least in the sixth century BC, was the temple tower Edurana, which sometimes went by the name Eduranki. At the beginning of the second millennium BC (ca. 1924 BC), under a man called Gungunum (r. 1932–1906 BC), Larsa broke free of Isin’s dominance over it and established its political dynasty. Although it grew more powerful than its former overlord, Larsa never accumulated a significant amount of territory. At its peak, under the authority of Rīm-Sîn I (r. 1822–1763 BC), it controlled only ten to fifteen other city-states. This city’s political dominance, as well as its dynastic line, was brought to an end by Hammu-rāpi of Babylon (r. 1792–1750 BC). After 1763 BC, Larsa was never again a major political player in Babylonia.

Mugilla
Mugilla was a settlement in Latium Vetus. Dionysius of Halicarnassus mentions it as one of seven Latin cities sacked by Coriolanus. Its location is unknown and its obscurity is further highlighted by the fact that Pliny the Elder does not include it in his catalog of vanished Latin peoples and places. The cognomen of a branch of the gens Papiria - Mugillanus - is thought to derive from the name of the settlement. Lucius Papirius Mugillanus held the consulship at Rome in 427 BCE.

Nineveh/Ninos
This important Mesopotamian city flanks the eastern edge of the Tigris flood plain, opposite modern Mosul, of which it is now a suburb. From the third millennium B.C. onwards, Nineveh was the most important religious center of the goddess Ištar in the area that would become the Assyrian heartland. Starting in the Middle Assyrian period, the city came under the authority of the kings of Assyria, who often sponsored large-scale building activities there. However, it was not until 704 B.C. that Nineveh became the administrative capital of Assyria when the Neo-Assyrian king Sennacherib moved the royal family and court there and transformed the city into a thriving imperial metropolis. Nineveh remained Assyria’s capital until 612 B.C., when it was captured and destroyed by a Babylonian-Median coalition led by Nabopolassar and Cyaxares. The visible remains of the (7th-century) Assyrian city include the citadel mound Kuyunjik, the smaller mound of Nebi Yunus, and the twelve-kilometer-long city wall.

Qatna
A city in western Syria that was first settled in the Early Bronze Age III (ca. 2700-2600 BCE). In the Middle Bronze Age (2000-1600 BCE), it became a major trading center and the capital of a regional kingdom. In the Late Bronze Age, the city of Qatna became a vassal of first the Mitanni Kingdom, then the Neo-Hittite Empire, and Egypt. The city's acropolis was abandoned in the Late Bronze Age I, though the surrounding area remained inhabited. It was resettled in the 10th century BCE as part of the Aramaean kingdom of Hamath, but was sacked by the army of Sargon II in 720 and ultimately abandoned in the 6th century BCE.

Seh Gubba
Ball (1987) describes his excavations at Seh Gubba that were carried out as part of the Saddam Dam Salvage Project. These excavations took place in early 1986 and revealed a fortified town. Ramparts dating to either the Sasanian or Byzantine phases surround the tell but Ball speculates the settlement was likely of Roman origin.

Sinzig
Modern Sinzig in Germany's Rheinland-Pfalz was the site of a Roman-era pottery manufacturing site. Scattered other Roman archaeological remains have been identified over the years, but a settlement center -- presumed to have been located on the Kirchhügel -- has not yet been positively located. BAtlas followed earlier scholarship in tentatively identifying this presumed settlement as "Sentiacum" or a variation on same by inferring backward in time on the basis of its earliest appearance in an 8th-century CE document of Pippin the Younger.

Sippar-Amnanum
Sippar-Amnanum (modern Tell ed-Der; also referred to as Sippar-Annunītu) was a small city located 6 km northeast of Sippar and 63 km north of Babylon. The goddess Annunītu was the patron deity of this sister city of Sippar, and Eulmaš was its principal temple. An archive of ca. 2,000 cuneiform tablets dating the the reigns of several kings of the First Dynasty of Babylon was excavated in the house of Ur-Utu, the chief lamentation-priest of the goddess Annunītu. From several inscriptions of Nabonidus (r. 555–539 BC), Babylon’s last native king, certainly, Sippar-Amnanum (which he refers to as Sippar-Annunītu) was still occupied and its cult was still in use in the sixth century BC, although it had been (partially) destroyed by the seventh-century-BC Assyrian king Sennacherib (r. 704–681 BC).
