Seleucia ad Belum also transliterated as Seleuceia, Seleukeia, or Seleukheia, and later Seleucopolis or Seleukobelos was an ancient city on the Orontes river Apamene, Syria; the site is located some kilometres west of the city of Apamea (also known as Pella), in modern Syria. The city is of Hellenistic foundation, the name goes back to Seleucus I Nicator. Because of its location at the southern borders of the Limestone Massif, which was called "Belus" in the ancient world, it was later given the surname "ad Belum".
