EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the breathtaking ruins of Pergamon, an ancient Greek city located in modern-day Turkey, in the region of Mysia, northwestern Anatolia. Pergamon, also known as Pergamum, was the capital city of the powerful Attalid Kingdom during the Hellenistic period, from 281-133 BC. The city was strategically situated on a promontory overlooking the Caicus River (modern day Bakircay), 16 miles from the Aegean Sea. The ruins in this photograph feature the ancient bridge and the remains of the Basilica, two of the most significant structures in Pergamon. The bridge, with its intricate arches and impressive engineering, once spanned the Caicus River and connected the city's various districts. The Basilica, a large, columned building, was likely used for administrative and judicial functions during the Roman period. Pergamon was an important cultural and religious center during the first century AD, with one of the Seven Churches of Asia Minor, as mentioned in the Book of Revelation, located here. The city's rich history and architectural wonders continue to captivate visitors from around the world, offering a glimpse into the ancient world and its enduring legacy. This photograph, taken in 1904, showcases the majesty and grandeur of Pergamon's ancient ruins, transporting us back in time to an era of great civilizations and historical significance.
