SUBZUPARA a place in Thracia, on the road from Philippopolis to Hadrianopolis (Itin. Ant. pp. 137, 231). It is called Castozobra or Castra Iarba in the Itin. Hieros. (p. 568), and Καστράιαρβα by Procopius (de Aed. 4.11. p. 305, ed. Bonn), and still retains the name of Castro Zarvi, or simply Zarvi. It has, however, also been identified with Hirmenly and Coiunlou.
