Lost Cities

A common story device, lost cities are a popular if not important part of the Conan universe. Often being the center of a greater mystery, lost cities often offer our barbarian hero treasure to loot and monsters to slay.

Robert E. Howard
This list covers all cities, whether visited by Conan or alluded to, in the main canon.


 * City of the Winged Ones, tomb of Belit the Pirate Queen, home of the extinct race of flying ape-men, south of Kush and on the Zarkheba river.

 * Fortress of the Black Ones, home of doll-making giants, on an island known only in the Book of Skelos.
