Telmessos or Telmessus was the largest city in Lycia, near the Carian border. Telmessus was a member of the Delian League in the 5th century BC. It was taken by Alexander in 334 BC, and subsequently remained semi-independent as a client-state of the Ptolemaic and Seleucid kingdoms until its absorption into a Roman province.
