Easton: Paphos
Source: Matthew Easton, Illustrated Bible Dictionary (1897) (Paphos) · external_aligned
The capital of the island of Cyprus, and therefore the residence of the Roman governor. It was visited by Paul and Barnabas on their first missionary tour (Acts 13:6). It is new Paphos which is here meant. It lay on the west coast of the island, about 8 miles north of old Paphos. Its modern name is Baffa.
