Derbe

Derbe (kwa Kigiriki: Δέρβη, Derbe, pia Δέρβεια, Derbeia) ulikuwa mji wa Wagiriki wa Kale katika rasi ya Anatolia,^[1] kusini-magharibi mwa Uturuki wa leo^[2].

Kwa sasa ni maghofu tu yanayopatikana km 15 kaskazini-mashariki kwa Karaman^[3][4].

Kuanzia mwaka 46 Mtume Paulo alifika mara kadhaa kuinjilisha huko (Mdo 14:6, 14:20, 16:1, 20:4).
