LABO´TAS

LABO´TAS (Λαβώτας), a small river of the plain of Antioch. (Strab. xvi. p.751.) It runs from the north, parallel to the ARCEUTHUS and, mixing with its waters and those of the Oenoparas coming from the east, in a small lake, they flow off in one stream and join the Orontes a little above Antioch. It is the western of the two rivers shown in map, Vol. I. p. 115, and Pagrae (Bagras) is situated on its western bank near its mouth.
