Alinda Archaeological Sitevisitor guide.

Located in Karpuzlu district of Aydın Province, Alinda is one of the important Carian cities. Ada, daughter of Hecatomnus, retreated to Alinda in 340 BC after being expelled from Halicarnassus by her brother Pixodarus, making this city her capital. The most prominent surviving structure in Alinda today is the agora. A theater is situated on the southwestern slope of the acropolis. On the acropolis, foundations of two temples remain discernible only in plan. Carian-style sarcophagi scattered among the houses of Karpuzlu provide evidence that the necropolis of Alinda was concentrated along the southern slope of the city.
