Several aspects concerning Timbriada and its territory, discussed in two recent publications (Cl. Brixhe 2016 – H. Bru 2017), are treated in this article: the questions of the location of the city, the territorial conflict with the city of Apollonia and the extension of the territory of the city. The idea that the site of Timbriada was near Akçaşar is maintained. The analysis of territories disputed with Apollonia must be conducted with caution and method, and indicates a location rather southeast of Lake Eğridir. For the extension of the territory of the city, it is highlighted by recent epigraphic and archaeological discoveries.
