Odogra

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Odogra or Odoga was a town in the district of Chammanene of ancient Cappadocia, between the Halys River and Mount Argaeus, mentioned by Ptolemy.[1] William Smith conjectured it was possibly the same as Ochras.[2] Modern scholars do not accept the equivalence, and treat Odogra as unlocated.[3]
