EDITORS COMMENTS
1. "The Ruins of the Basilica at Bergama, also known as Pergamon, offer a glimpse into the rich history and cultural significance of this ancient city in modern-day Turkey. Located on a promontory northwest of the modern city of Bergama, Pergamon was the capital of the Kingdom of Pergamon during the Hellenistic period, from 281-133 BC. This period marked the height of Pergamon's power and prosperity, as it became a center of art, science, and learning. The Basilica at Pergamon, or Pergamum Basilica, is one of the most impressive ruins of this ancient city. This grand structure, with its massive columns and intricate carvings, once served as a marketplace and administrative center during the Roman period. The Basilica, along with other ancient sites such as the Temple of Trajan and the Altar of Zeus, attest to Pergamon's importance as a cultural and religious center in the ancient world. Pergamon's history extends beyond the Hellenistic and Roman periods. In the first century AD, it was one of the Seven Churches of Asia Minor to which the Book of Revelation was addressed. The ruins of the ancient city and its churches continue to attract visitors from around the world, who come to explore the history and mystery of this fascinating place. Today, the ancient sites of Pergamon are located to the north and west of the modern city of Bergama, in the province of Izmir. The ruins stand as a testament to the enduring legacy of this ancient Greek city, which continues to captivate the imagination and inspire scholars and travelers alike.
