Drabus

Coastal Greek town in ancient Thrace

Drabus or Drabos (Ancient Greek: Δράβος) was a coastal Greek town in ancient Thrace, on the Thracian Chersonesus.[1]

There have been inconclusive attempts to identify Drabus with Araplus.[1] Drabus' site is tentatively located near Ece Limani, in European Turkey.[2][3]
