The cities of Lycia and of Caria, along with Kos and Rhodes, were overthrown by a violent earthquake that smote them. These cities also were restored by the emperor Antoninus, who was keenly anxious to rebuild them, and devoted vast sums to this task. As to his gifts of money to Greeks, and to such barbarians as needed it, and his buildings in Greece, Ionia, Carthage, and Syria, others have written of them most exactly.
