Corna (Lycaonia)

Last updated

Corna or Korna was a town of ancient Lycaonia, inhabited in Byzantine times. [1] It became a bishopric; no longer the seat of a residential bishop, it remains a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church. [2]

Its site is tentatively located near Dinorna hüyük, known as Orhaniye in Akören district, Konya Province Turkey. [1] [3]
