Κατακεκαυμένη, χώρα τῆς Ἐφεσίας. Στράβων τρισκαιδεκάτῳ. τὸ ἐθνικὸν Κατακεκαυμενίτης “ἄδενδρος ἅπασα πλὴν τῆς ἀμπέλου τῆς τὸν Κατακεκαυμενίτην φερούσης οἶνον. εἰκάζουσι δέ τινες ἐκ κεραυνοβολιῶν καὶ πρηστήρων συμβῆναι”. ἔστι καὶ νῆσος ἐν τῇ Ἐρυθρᾷ θαλάσσῃ.

Katakekaumene: a district of the Ephesian territory. Strabo, book 13. The ethnonym is 'Katakekaumenites': 'entirely treeless except for the vine which produces the Katakekaumenites wine. Some conjecture that it came about from lightning-strikes and fire-whirlwinds.' There is also an island in the Red Sea.
