Stephane

STEPHANE(Στεφάνη), a small port town on the coast of Paphlagonia, according to Arrian ( Peripl. P. E. p. 15) 180 stadia east of Cimolis, but according to Marcian (p. 72) only 150. The place was mentioned as early as the time of Hecataeus as a town of the Mariandyni (Steph. B. s. v. Στεφανίς), under the name of Stephanis. (Comp. Scylax, p. 34; Ptol. 5.4§ 2.) The modern village of Stephanioor Estifanprobably occupies the site of the ancient Stephane.
