for the Turkish city Aegea city Aegea is a back formation from Aegean Sea Aegean , the sea that was named for an eponym ous Aegeus in early levels of Greek mythology . The Encyclopaedia Britannica 1911 mentioned an Aegea, queen of the Amazons, as an alternative eponym of the Aegean Sea, and Aegea was the name of the wife of the Roman proconsul of Achaia whom the apostle Andrew converted and baptised, according to Jacob de Voragine s Golden Legend , De Sancto Andrea Apostolo. Aegea is found in modern baby name books and carried by some contemporary women. Modern Italian has the adjective Egea Aegean , but Latin language Classical Latin had none. Modern botanical Latin sometimes uses the species specific epithet aegea to mean of the Aegean . Modern usages include Aegea as a Turkish socio geographic term for the Aegean basin and the nations around it, as in zmir , pearl of Aegea. Geologists also use Aegea to describe the fragmentary rotating crustal block that supports mainland Greece and the Aegean basin, as a parallel to Anatolia . This block is rotating counter clockwise and is being strongly subducted into a line of trenches south of Crete . The ancient city of Aegea is the modern Turkish Ayas city Ayas . Near another city called Aegea, in Euboea , Poseidon had his watery palace.
