List of Lycian place names

This article contains a list of Lycian place names that have survived from ancient Lycia in Anatolia.

Ptolemy's Geography lists places in Asia Minor[1] and specifically Lycia.

Over a thousand or more years, the borders of the historical territory, called Lycia in English, are not likely to have remained invariant.

For the most part, the equivalent English, French or German pronunciations are good approximations, but Turkish has some letters not present in those languages.

As Turkish is an agglutinative language, the endings do not have the same meanings; e.g., daği is not the plural of dağ, which is daĝlar (daalar).
