Cinna (Galatia)

Cinna or Kinna was a town of ancient Galatia.^[1] It was known as Zallara in the Hittite period. It was also the seat of a bishop; no longer a residential see, it remains a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.^[2]

Its site is located near Karahamzılı, Asiatic Turkey.^[3]^[4]^[5] The exact location of Cinna is now lost though it is thought to have been near village of Balyk Koyounji (vilayet of Angora) in a rich corn-growing area, west of Ankara.^[6]^[7] It is also thought to be in the locations of Cihanbeyli or Kulu.^[8]^[9]

During the Late Roman Empire the town was a seat of a bishop, several of whom are known to us.^[10]
