MYNDUS was a city in Caria at the extremity of the peninsula on which Halicarnassus lay. It was strong enough to resist an assault of Alexander, but played no great part in history. It is mentioned separately in 1Ma 15:23 as one of the places to which, in b.c. 139, the Romans sent messages on behalf of the Jews. Hence it is assumed that it was independent of the Carian confederacy; and its native population seems to have descended from the race of the Leleges, and to have always maintained its independence against the Carians.
