Aplanta (Greek: Απλάντα; Turkish: Aplanda) is an abandoned village in the Larnaca District of Cyprus, located 4 km south of Anglisides. Aplanta was inhabited exclusively by Turkish Cypriots; in 1960, they numbered 55. They fled to Kivisili in December 1963 (cf. Cypriot intercommunal violence). After the 1974 Turkish invasion and subsequent partition of the island, most moved to Limnia.[1]
