This morning we left Phineka for this village, called Haggevalleh. The distance is five hours, reckoning by time, for we have had again to skirt the plain and repass Limyra. Continuing at the foot of the mountain for two miles beyond that city, we found, quite separated from it, a large collection of ornamented tombs in the rocks, but no walls or indications of another city; these therefore must probably be added to the cemeteries of Limyra. The inscriptions, with a single exception, were all Lycian, and this had Greek letters over one panel, and over the other an Eastern character unknown to me, much resembling the letters upon the coins of Phoenicia. [Footnote: This Phoenician inscription is given in Plate XXXVI. No. 1.]
