BERENI´CE

BERENI´CE, A Cilician city of this name is mentioned by Stephanus (s. v. Βερενίκη); and in the Stadiasmus a bay Berenice is mentioned. “As the Stadiasmus does not mention any distance between the Gulf of Berenice and Celenderis, there is reason to think that Berenice was the name of the bay to the eastward of the little port of Kelénderi.” (Leake, Asia Minor, &c. p. 202.)
