History
A city of Pisidia, the site of Prostanna is located near modern Eğridir in Turkey in a saddle between the peak of Sivri Tepe and the main body of Davras Daği. Prostanna is mentioned in two literary sources (Ptolemy 5.5.7 and a listing of of bishops attending the Council of Constantinople in 381). The name is also attested in an inscription from Delos that dates ca. 113 B.C.
