From that moment on, just like Gaius Caesar, who returned
from an eastern expedition before him and died in Limyra, he
also became a citizen of Selinus, that is, todays Gazipaşa. After
this tragic event, the city of Selinus was known as Traianopolis
for a long time. The ancient city of Selinus is located on the
slope of a hill extending like an elbow to the sea to the southeast
of the marina and the Hacı Musa Stream within the borders of
Gazipaşa District.
