Talk:Rhacotis

-= Prior History =-

In the days of Ramses II, this city was previously called Karbanis.

The name Rhacotis, read as a theophoric name(where the ra moves to the end), becomes Gadirus. The meaning of this word is boundary. This term may appear in Plato's writings, which he attributes to Solon in the days of Amasis, attesting to this city name around 570BC.
