Saphri

Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography

SAPHRI(Σαφρί), a small village of Parthyene mentioned by Isidorus ( Stath. Parth. 100.12). It may be the same place as that called by Ptolemy Σόρβα (6.9.6), which he places in Hyrcania, close to the Astabeni. Forbiger identifies it with the modern Shoffri.
