ANDEDA Pisidia, Turkey.

At or near Yavuz, formerly Andya, some 24 km N of Korkuteli. The city is known only from coins and inscriptions, except that the Notitiae record a bishop of “Sandida.” The location is fixed by the evident survival of the name, and by a decree of the Council and People of the Andedans (AM 10 [1885], 337). About a km to the N of Yavuz is a stone marking the boundary between An(deda) and Po(gla). Apart from the fairly numerous inscriptions no remains of the city have been found, and the exact site remains uncertain.
