| Location: It is located near the Bekirler Village; to the northeast of the Babadag District of the Denizli Province [Simsek 2002:3-4]. |
| Geography and Environment: The city located on the northern slopes of Salbacus (Babadag) overlooks the Lycos plain. It is a known fact that many of the cities located in this valley were involved in textile trading; which was also probably true for Trapezopolis. The administration borders extend to the Meander River to the north; Attouda to the northwest; and Laodiceia to the east. The city is located at the Carian and Phrygian border. |
