Cannabaceae

Archalla (Greek: Άρχαλλα) was a town of ancient Cappadocia, inhabited during Roman times.[1]

Its site is tentatively located near Erkilet(Under Kocasinan), Asiatic Turkey.[1][2] Although only attested in ancient times, it was presumably inhabited continuously through Byzantine times and into the present day, since its name is preserved in the current name Erkilet.[3] The façade of the extant Mehmed Paşa Camii mosque in Erkilet is built partly using ancient remains as spolia.[3]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
