(anc. geog.), a promontory on the east side of Cyprus. Now Capo di Grievo; with a high rugged eminence rising over it, in the form of a table. It was sacred to Venus; and hence the epithet Idalia given her by the poets. The eminence was covered with a grove; and in the grove was a little town, in Pliny's time extinct. Idalia, according to Bochart, denotes the place or spot sacred to the goddess.
