Leston (river)

natural · 550 BC – 30 BC

Scylax mentions a "Leston" river on the eastern coast of the Black Sea. It is possibly to be identified with the lower reaches of the modern Tchorokhi/Chorokhi in Georgia, but other ancient testimony gives other names for the upstream portions of this river.
