Choma (Lycia)

Choma (Ancient Greek: Χῶμα) was a place in the interior of ancient Lycia, according to Pliny on a river Aedesa. Ptolemy places Choma as one of the four cities of the Milyas, and places it near Candyba. The town can be identified with a site near today's village of Hacımusalar in the district of Elmalı.

Several buildings of the ancient city have been excavated and are visible today.
