Commentary on the Toponym:

Kommentar (Talbert):
Below the symbol, "Hoc e(st) templ(vm) asclepy" / "This is a temple of Asclepius."

Miller, Itineraria, Sp. 876:
Balacris, Hoc est templum Asclepy (Nicht Asclepy (Bg)), Balacris (Ra), Φάλακρα (St), Balatris (Gu – am Meere); j. Sidi Raffa (Apolloquelle); nicht Ras Sem.
Unweit davon am Meere liegt Phycus, Φυκοῦς (St, Pt, Stad, Pl), ein Kleiner Hafenplatz an einer Bucht und einem gleichnamigen Vorgebirge; j. Ras Sem.
21.

Pausanias:
§ 2.26.9 From the one at Pergamus has been built in our own day the sanctuary of Asclepius by the sea at Smyrna. Further, at Balagrae of the Cyreneans there is an Asclepius called Healer, who like the others came from Epidaurus. From the one at Cyrene was founded the sanctuary of Asclepius at Lebene, in Crete. There is this difference between the Cyreneans and the Epidaurians, that whereas the former sacrifice goats, it is against the custom of the Epidaurians to do so.
