Holding Liberia liable for damages received in the territory was a practical admission of her jurisdiction.

This is about the middle of the disputed territory.
In Pamphylia there is no settlement that can be with confidence assigned to them; but in Lycia it would seem that they colonised Phaselis, and perhaps other places. The mountain which rises immediately behind Phaselis was called "Solyma;" and a very little to the south was another mountain known as "Phoenicus."
