A titular see in Lydia, suffragan of Sardis. It is not mentioned by any ancient
geographer or historian. We possess some of its coins representing the Hermus.
It is the present village of Selendi, chief town of a nahia in the caza of Koula
in the vilayet of Smyrna, situated on the banks of the Selendi Tchai or Ainé
Tchai, an affluent of the Hernus (now Ghediz Tchai). Some inscriptions but no
ruins are found there. The list of bishops of Silandus given by Le Quien,
"Oriens christianus", I, 881, needs correction: Markus, present at the Council
of Nicaea, 325 (less probably bishop of Blaundus, as suggested by Ramsay, "Asia
Minor", 134), Alcimedes at Chalcedon, 451 (Anatolius, who signed the letter of
the bishops of the province to Emperor Leo, 458, belongs rather to Sala, Ramsay,
ibid., 122); Andreas, at the Council of Constantinople 680; Stephanus, at
Constantinople, 787; Eustathius, at Constantinople, 879 (perhaps Bishop of
Blaundus). The bishop mentioned as having taken part in the Council of
Constantinople, 1351, belongs to the See of Synaus (Wächter, "Der Verfall des
Griechentums in Kleinasien im XIV Jahrhundert", Leipzig, 1903, 63, n. 1). The
See of Silandus is mentioned in the Greek "Notitiae episcopatuum" until the
thirteenth century.
