Description

The exact date of the foundation of Ibradı, which is located within the borders of Psidia, is not known exactly. However, it is estimated that it dates back to the Roman period from the ruins found in and around Ibradı. For example, there are ruins of the Hellenistic Erymna Ancient City between Ormana Municipality, 2 km. away from Ibradı, and Ürünlü Village, 7 km. away. The necropolis of the city is on the rocky ridges surrounding Ormana.

Remains of the Hellenistic periods can be seen around the village of Çukurviran, 11 km away from Ormana. Only the foundation stones of the Seljuk Caravanserai at Kesikbel on the Ibradı caravan route remain. Evliya Çelebi writes in his famous Seyahatname that Ibradı was a very prosperous and important town in the 17th century.
