Lebedos was, most probably, founded by the Carians, and later colonized by the Greeks who arrived there under the guidance of Andræmon, a son of Codrus. The city was inhabited from the beginning of the first millennium BC to the Byzantine times. I was never very rich or significant, because of the poor location of its harbor, which was not suitable for larger vessels. However, it was famous for its mineral springs. The development of Lebedos was also slowed down by the existence of bigger cities, Teos and Ephesus, nearby.
