Apamea Cibotus, Apamea ad Maeandrum (on the Maeander), Apamea or Apameia (Ancient Greek: Ἀπάμεια, romanized: Apámeia, Ancient Greek: κιβωτός, romanized: kibōtós) was an ancient city in Anatolia founded in the 3rd century BC by Antiochus I Soter, who named it after his mother Apama. It was in Hellenistic Phrygia,[1] but became part of the Roman province of Pisidia.[2][3] It was near, but on lower ground than, Celaenae (Kelainai).
