Sardis: An Ancient City of Asia Minor, Home to Croesus and Early Christianity (Mary Evans Picture Library, Stereo Underwood, Sepia) Sardis, an ancient city located in the Lydia region of Asia Minor, is a captivating blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. Known as the ancient capital of Lydia, Sardis was famously ruled by the wealthy and powerful king Croesus in the 6th century BC. The city's prosperity attracted the early spread of Christianity, making it one of the first Christian communities in the region. This stunning sepia photograph, captured by Underwood & Underwood, a renowned American photography company, showcases the breathtaking landscape of Sardis. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the bustling streets and grand architecture that once defined this ancient city. The man in the foreground, dressed in traditional attire, adds a sense of scale and human connection to the scene. The ruins of the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, can be seen in the background, a testament to the city's rich history. The temple, dedicated to the Greek goddess Artemis, was a significant pilgrimage site and a symbol of Sardis' religious diversity. As Christianity began to spread throughout the Roman Empire, Sardis became an important center of the faith. The Basilica of the Apostles, a large Christian church, was built in the 5th century AD, and its remains can still be seen today. The city's Christian heritage is further evidenced by the numerous burial sites and inscriptions found in the area. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the enduring history and cultural significance of Sardis, a city that continues to captivate the imagination of historians, archaeologists, and travelers alike.
