Historical background

The town meant is probably Kerasous, today's Giresun on the Black Sea coast, a foundation of Greeks from Sinope. According to tradition Lucullus brought the cherry to Rome from here in 74 BC, and the fruit is said to be named after the town. The identification with the name on the map is not certain.
