Olymos (Ancient Greek: Ὄλυμος) or Olymon (Ὄλυμον) or Hylimos (Ὕλιμος) was a town of ancient Caria. It was a polis (city-state) and a member of the Delian League.[1]
Its site is located near Kafaca, Asiatic Turkey.[2][3] Many inscriptions of the Hellenistic period have been recovered from the site.[1]
