Secrets of Archaeology - Season 1 Episode 23 The Fabulous Centres of Hellenism
Between the 3rd and 1st centuries BC, many cities in Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey) reached unprecedented artistic levels. They were the new centers of Hellenism; the fruit of the junction of Greek and Eastern civilizations. In this episode, we will journey to the cities of Ephesus and Pergamum. In Pergamum, we will behold the city’s great alter, which the citizens considered to be a symbol of the cultural supremacy of Hellenistic people over the rest of the world.
