Ixia

settlement · 330 BC – 2099 AD

An ancient settlement that Strabo places south of Lindos on east coast of the island of Rhodes. Nineteenth century scholars localized it at the ruined monastery of Ἁγία Ζωοδόχος Πηγή in Plimmiri, a decision followed in BAtlas. An extant church of the Zodikos Pigi is located near the modern mole and dock.
