Cinna or Kinna was a town of ancient Galatia.[1] It was known as Zallara in the Hittite period. It was also the seat of a bishop; no longer a residential see, it remains a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.[2]
Location
[edit]Its site is located near Karahamzılı, Asiatic Turkey.[3][4][5] The exact location of Cinna is now lost though it is thought to have been near village of Balyk Koyounji (vilayet of Angora) in a rich corn-growing area, west of Ankara.[6][7] It is also thought to be in the locations of Cihanbeyli or Kulu.[8][9]

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.
