Stephanos of Byzantium - Ethnika
Seleukeia: Seleukeia, a city in Cilicia called Tracheia. Seleucus Nicator named it Seleukeia, as Alexander says. Previously it was called Olbia and Hyria; the citizens from Hyria 'Hyrieis', and from Olbia 'Olbianoi', and from Seleukeia 'Seleukeis' and 'Seleukeus' and 'Seleukenos', and 'Seleukis' the territory. There is also a kind of cup, Seleukis, from Seleucus.
