Kaualena (Ancient Greek: Καυαληνοί)[1] was a town of ancient Phrygia, inhabited in Roman and Byzantine times.[2] Its name does not occur in ancient authors, but is inferred from epigraphic and other evidence.[2]
Its site is near Elmacık in Asiatic Turkey.[2][3]
The people of Kaualena were called Καβαληνεῖς.[1]
