Soli (or Soloi) is an ancient Greek city in the island of Cyprus, located southwest of Morphou, and dates back to about the 6th century BC. Since 1974 the city is situated in the de facto Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. At its current location, the whole urban centre was designed by Solon during his 10-year trip, after whom the name Soloi is commonly attributed. Soloi was one of the ten city-kingdoms into which Cyprus was divided at the time.
