Antiochia on the Maeander also Antioch on the Maeander (Greek: Αντι?χεια του Μαι?νδρου; Latin: Antiochia ad Mæandrum), earlier Pythopolis, was a city of ancient Caria, in Anatolia. The city was situated between the Maeander and Orsinus rivers near their confluence and, though it was the site of a bridge over the Maeander had "little or no individual history" (ref. Princeton Encyclopedia of Classical Sites). The scanty ruins are located on a hill (named, in Turkish, Jeni-Sher or Yeniser) a few km southeast of Kuyucak, Aydin Province, Turkey, near the modern city of Basaran, or the village of Aliagaçiftligi (ref. Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World). The city already existed when Antiochus I enlarged and renamed it. It was home to the sophist Diotrephis.[1]

It has not been excavated, although Christopher Ratte et al. visited the site in 1994 and produced a sketch plan.
