Cadyanda or Kadyanda (Ancient Greek: Καδύανδα) was a town of ancient Lycia. The site was discovered by Charles Fellows.[1] The decree of Pixodarus now in the British Museum shows that the Lycian name of the town was Xadawãti.[2][3]
Its site is on a hill top, it can be reached from Üzümlü, Asiatic Turkey.[4][5] at the foot of that hill, that has a bus connection to Fethiye, some 25 kilometers away.
