Ophryneion[edit]

This article includes all the references which exist in the literary and epigraphical sources to Ophryneion in Antiquity based on research I have been doing for my doctorate. If aspects of the city's history in Antiquity appear not to have been covered, that is because the evidence for those aspects does not exist. I am not a Byzantine historian however, so I cannot vouch for the city's history after around AD 400. The place to look would be Klaus Belke's Tabula Imperii Byzantini 13: Bithynien und Hellespontos when it eventually comes out: http://www.oeaw.ac.at/byzanz/tibkom.htm. It is also possible that there has been further excavation work since Cook surveyed the site in 1966, though I have been unable to find any reference to this.
