Kandyba or Candyba (Hittite: 𒄭𒅔𒁺𒉿 Hinduwa, Lycian: 𐊜𐊙𐊋𐊂𐊆 Xãkbi, Ancient Greek: Κάνδυβα, Latin: Candyba)[1] was a settlement in ancient Lycia, in modern-day Antalya province on the southwestern Mediterranean coast of Turkey.
[2] Stephanus of Byzantium reports a mythological tradition that the city took its name from Candybus, son of Deucalion.
[3] The ancient settlement is set on a hilltop high above the plain of Kasaba, 13 kilometres north of Kaş.
In antiquity, Candyba was one of the smaller cities of Lycia, but was an independent polis with voting rights in the Lycian League and minted its own coins.
[4][5] No longer a residential bishopric, Candyba is today listed by the Catholic Church as a titular see.
