Although Plinius in 1C AD first mentioned Simena, it dates back to 4C BC, where we learn from Lycian inscriptions and silver coins. Simena was part of the Lycian Union and represented the city of Aperlai. After Anatolia became part of the Roman Empire, Simena sustained its independence. When approaching the shore, a Roman bath comes first, which was built in 79 BC. Lycian cities are famous for the rock tombs and sarcophaguses, which you can see in Simena. The Lycians built a theater that has a 300-person capacity and a temple that was converted into a church, later a mosque. Most of the sarcophaguses are in the water.
