Today we begin our tour to the legendary city of Troy to see the replica of the wooden horse. We visit the ruins, which sparked our interest as we entered Assos (Acts 20:13-14) where Paul boarded to sail to Mitylene—the relatively intact city walls, the lookout tower, theater and agora. The Byzantine church turned mosque is no longer used. From the top of the volcanic hill we have a spectacular view (if it is clear) of Mitylene located on the sea twelve kilometers away. Then we travel to Pergamon to visit the Acropolis, Temple of Athena, Serapis Temple, Heroon, Sanctuary of Athena, Library of Pergamon, Temple of Tragan, Theatre, Zeus Altar, Kizil Avlu. Our sites today are Pergamum (Church of Pergamum 3) and the small ruins at Thyatira. Pergamum, perched on the hilltop above the modern city of Bergama, is one of the most dramatic sites in Turkey.

Arrive at the Corinth Canal for a brief stop and then continue on to the Acropolis of Corinth. Acro-corinth is the citadel of Corinth. It is situated to the southwest of the ancient city and rises to an elevation of 1883 ft. [574 m.]. Today it is surrounded by walls that are about 1.85 mi. [3 km.] long. The foundations of the fortifications are ancient—going back to the Hellenistic Period. The current walls were built and rebuilt by the Byzantines, Franks, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks. Climb up and visit the fortress. Then proceed to the Ancient city of Corinth. It was to this megalopolis where the apostle Paul came and worked, established a thriving church, subsequently sending two of his epistles now part of the New Testament. Here, we see all of the sites associated with his ministry: the Agora, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Odeon, the Bema and Gallio’s Seat. The small local archaeological museum here is an absolute must! In Romans 16:23 Paul mentions his friend Erastus and • • we will see an inscription to him at the site. In the afternoon we will drive to GREECE CRETE TURKEY Nafplion for check-in at hotel followed by dinner and overnight.

The Development of Early Imperial Dress from the Tetrarchs to the Herakleian Dynasty General Introduction The emperor, as head of state, was the most important and powerful individual in the land; his official portraits and to a lesser extent those of the empress were depicted throughout the realm. His image occurred most frequently on small items issued by government officials such as coins, market weights, seals, imperial standards, medallions displayed beside new consuls, and even on the inkwells of public officials. As a sign of their loyalty, his portrait sometimes appeared on the patches sown on his supporters’ garments, embossed on their shields and armour or even embellishing their jewelry. Among more expensive forms of art, the emperor’s portrait appeared in illuminated manuscripts, mosaics, and wall paintings such as murals and donor portraits. Several types of statues bore his likeness, including those worshiped as part of the imperial cult, examples erected by public 1 officials, and individual or family groupings placed in buildings, gardens and even harbours at the emperor’s personal expense.

  • I Ntroduction
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-77257-0 - Byzantine Monuments of Istanbul John Freely and Ahmet S. Cakmak Excerpt More information _ I NTRODUCTION his is the story of the Byzantine monuments of Istanbul, the city known to Tthe Greeks as Constantinople, the ancient Byzantium. Constantinople was, for more than a thousand years, capital of the Byzantine Empire, which in its earlier period, from the fourth to the sixth century,was synonomous with the Roman Empire. During those centuries, the religion of the empire changed from pagan to Christian and its language from Latin to Greek, giving rise to the cul- ture that in later times was called Byzantine, from the ancient name of its capital. As the great churchman Gennadius was to say in the mid-fifteenth century,when the empire had come to an end,“Though I am a Hellene by speech yet I would never say that I was a Hellene, for I do not believe as Hellenes believe. I should like to take my name from my faith, and if anyone asks me what I am, I answer, ‘A Christian.’Though my father dwelt in Thessaly, I do not call myself a Thes- salian, but a Byzantine, for I am of Byzantium.”1 The surviving Byzantine monuments of Istanbul include more than a score of churches, most notably Hagia Sophia. Other extant monuments include the great land walls of the city and fragments of its sea walls; the remains of two or three palaces; a fortified port; three commemorative columns and the base of a fourth; two huge subterranean cisterns and several smaller ones; three enormous reservoirs; an aqueduct; a number of fragmentary ruins; and part of the Hippo- drome, the city’s oldest monument and the only one that can surely be assigned to ancient Byzantium.

  • The Conception and Articulation of Urban Space in Constantinople
    The Conception and Articulation of Urban Space in Constantinople Paul Magdalino Patria (995) I. The city-plan of Constantine – New walls, churches, baths – Forum with porphyry column, triumphal arches, Senate House – Hag.Eirene, Holy Apostles, Hag. Sophia, St Agathonikos, St Akakios – Palace complex (17 units) – Hippodrome – Houses for 12 senators – 4 emboloi emanating from the Palace, with domed vaults and paved terraces – Aqueducts and sewers – Palaces for 3 sons (walls of Theodosius II) II. Statues (Constantine) III. Buildings (from Constantine to the present) Patria I 68, ed. Preger, Scriptores, 148 He also built four porticoes (emboloi), with domed masonry vaults, from the palace as far as the land walls. One began from the Tykanisterion and (by way of) the Mangana and the Acropolis and ta Eugeniou went as far as St Anthony's; another, from the Daphne and the (harbour of) Sophiai, as far as Rabdos. The other two porticoes (went from) the Chalke and the Milion and the Forum as far as the Bull and the Ox and the Exokionion. Above the porticoes were terraces paved with stone slabs and innumerable bronze statues for the city's adornment. He also built the cisterns and brought the aqueducts from Bulgaria; in addition, he made deep, stone-built channels throughout the whole city, as deep as the porticoes were tall, so that there would be no foul smells and spread of diseases, but the foul smelling matter would drain away into the depths and pass down to the sea.
