Pergamon Ancient Site

Pergamon was a city that stood the test of time and was part of several influences. The greek made it a major cultural capital, but it was Hadrian, during the roman period, who made it a metropolis. There are lots of ruins giving a glimpse of the city that one was.

“During the Hellenistic period, it became the capital of the Kingdom of Pergamon in 281–133 BC under the Attalid dynasty, who transformed it into one of the major cultural centres of the Greek world. Many remains of its monuments can still be seen and especially the masterpiece of the Pergamon Altar. Pergamon was the northernmost of the seven churches of Asia cited in the New Testament Book of Revelation”
