Thospia/Bouana/‘Ospa’/Ṭušpa — by M. Roaf — last modified Dec 20, 2023 05:38 AM

Ṭušpa is an Urartian fortress and settlement near the historic center of Van in southeastern Turkey. Here archaeological remains of buildings and inscribed objects of several Urartian kings starting with Sarduri I (ninth century BCE) have been found. Furthermore, the place is frequently mentioned in Urartian inscriptions in connection with the god Haldi, who is addressed as "Lord of Ṭušpa-City". Ṭupša is often referred to as the capital of Urartu, although this remains uncertain. Rather than an administrative center, it was probably a religious one. In later times the place was known as Thospia/Bouana/‘Ospa’ (BAtlas 89 F2 Thospia/Bouana/‘Ospa’). Today the ruins of the fortress are referred to as Van Kalesi (or Van Castle).

Thymbra — by C. Foss — last modified Oct 14, 2024 11:20 AM

Thymbra was a place in the Troad. It is most famous as the site of the sanctuary known as Thymbraeum, a site sacred to Apollo Thymbraeus. In the Trojan War cycle, this is the place where Achilles reportedly ambushed and killed the Trojan prince Troilus. The nature of the site and its location is debated in the ancient sources. It was said to be located along the Thymbrios River, a tributary of the Scamander. It is referred to as a polis only by Stephanus of Byzantium. Other authors, including Strabo, use the term tópos or pedíon to describe Thymbra. It may be that Thymbra should be associated with an archaeological site south of Akçaköy, at least according to Cook.
