VASADA
VASADA (
Οὐάσαδα), a town of Lycaonia, a little to the south-west of Laodiceia (
Ptol. 5.4.10; Hierocl. p. 675;
Cone. Chalced. p. 674, where it is miswritten
Οὔσαδα; Conc. Const. iii. p. 675, where it bears the name of
Ἀάσαδα). Its site is probably marked by the ruins near
Channur Chanah, between
Ilgun and
Ladik. (Hamilton,
Researches, ii. p. 190, in the
Journ. of the Roy. Geogr. Soc. viii. p. 144; Kiepert, in Franz,
Fünf Inschriften, p. 36.)
