Comana

Comana lies in the Anti-Taurus near the upper course of the Sarus. In antiquity it was a sacred city of Cappadocia, renowned for the temple of the goddess Ma, whom Greek writers identified with Enyo. Its priests held great influence over the sanctuary and the people attached to it. A Roman theatre, the monumental gateway called Alakapı and remains of a Byzantine church bear witness to successive periods of life at the site.
