These markers were once found at the bend of the Iaxartes River (Syr Darya in Central Asia) to the east of the Caspian Sea. Pliny the Elder describes this place as lying beyond the Portus Macedonum in Carmania.

Castra Germanorum
Leveau (1977) discusses the possible location of this Roman fort on the basis of itinerary sources and prior modern scholarship, concluding only that it must have been near the Oued Damous and its mouth. Potter (BAtlDir) echoes this assertion, but ventures to place a hollow symbol on the map at a location in the vicinity of modern Sidi el Kassadi. No archaeological site corresponding to this toponym has yet been identified.

Koios (river)
An ancient river mentioned only by Pausanias, who describes it, along with the Elektra, as lying between Andania and Kyparissia in Messenia. RE declines to identify it with a specific modern river other than to assert that it must have been a tributary of the ancient Balyra. BAtlas 58 labels a river stretch corresponding to the upper course of the modern Mavrozoumena river as mapped and named in OpenStreetMap. In BAtlDir, the corresponding modern name / location is given as "Malthis ", a name that does not appear in GeoNames, OpenStreetMap, or Wikidata, but that is clearly related to Malthi, a modern village near this river stretch. The BAtlas arrangement makes the Koios a tributary of the Elektra, which is then a tributary of the Balyra.

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.

Shanidar Cave
Shanidar Cave is a cave located in the Zagros Mountains, within the Erbil Governorate of the Kurdistan Region in northern Iraq. The cave was the site of hominin activity beginning some 65,000 years ago. Following the first archaeological investigation of the cave in 1951, fieldwork has continued and, among other finds, has documented the remains of a dozen Neanderthals. There was proto-Neolithic activity in the cave, dated ca. 10,500 BCE and related to the Natufian culture. Some 35 individuals of this phase were buried in the cave.

The Temple of Apollo Patroos on the west side of the Agora of Athens was built at the end of the fourth century BC. It contained a famous statue of Apollo by Euphranor. The structure wraps around the tiny fourth-century BC shrine of Zeus Phratrios and Athena Phratrios. The existence of an earlier temple, destroyed during the Persian Sack of 480 BC, is disputed.

Temple of Artemis at Sardis
A large temple dedicated to Artemis at the city of Sardis in western Asia Minor. A sanctuary to Artemis was constructed on the site during the Persian Era (ca. 547-334 BCE), and construction on a new temple on the site began during the third century BCE. The temple was never fully completed. A small church was built on part of the site in the 5th century CE, but the structure declined from the 7th century onwards, and many of its stones were reused or burned.

Usays
Vogüé (1868 and 1877) assumed that the large, square fort and bath facilities at the extinct Jebel Seis volcano in Syria were Roman (whence Dussaud 1927 whence BAtlas); however, excavations in the 1960s demonstrated that the fortification and other structures constitute an Umayyad fortified palace and associated settlement built in the late 7th to early 8th centuries CE, incorporating some elements of a pre-existing settlement, fort and/or monastery dating to the 6th century CE. There is no evidence for activity at the site in the early Roman empire.

Zygris (Marsa Baqqush)
An ancient anchorage on the Mediterranean coast of modern Egypt mentioned by Ptolemy (Zygis limen) and in the Stadiasmus Maris Magni. This Zygris (not to be confused with another also mentioned by Ptolemy) has been identified since the early 20th century with a small, reef-walled bay whose name, Marsa Baqqush, has since come to denote the larger bay of which the Zygris anchorage is a part. Multiple ancient wrecks have been identified within and just outside this anchorage, and an extensive system of interconnected rock-cut cisterns, elliptically mentioned in the Stadiasmus, has been identified ashore.

Zygritai
The Zygritai were a Libyan people mentioned by Ptolemy and thought to have been localized in the vicinity of the ancient town of Zygris, for which Ptolemy separately provides coordinates.
