The Cities and Bishoprics of Phyrgia: Being an Essay of the Local History of Phrygia from the Earliest Times to the Turkish Conquest V1, Part Two is a historical book written by William M. Ramsay. The book provides a comprehensive account of the local history of Phrygia, a region in central Anatolia, from the earliest times to the Turkish conquest. The book is part two of volume one and focuses on the cities and bishoprics of Phrygia. It includes detailed descriptions of the cities and their historical significance, as well as the role of bishops in shaping the region's religious and cultural identity. The author draws on a range of primary sources, including ancient inscriptions, historical accounts, and archaeological evidence, to provide a rich and nuanced portrait of Phrygia's past. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of Anatolia, early Christianity, or the Byzantine Empire.1897. Part Two of Volume One. Ramsay, the first Professor of Classical Archaeology at Oxford University, pioneered the study of antiquity in what is today known as western Turkey. He went on to devote the latter part of his life to applying what he had learned to the study of the New Testament. He is also acknowledged as the outstanding authority on the life of Paul. In this work Ramsay attempts to throw some light on the question of how Phrygia has come to present the aspect that it now shows to the traveler. Contents of Part II. West and West-Central Phrygia: Eumeneia; Apameia; The Christian Inscriptions of South-Western Phrygia; The Banaz-Ova; Akmonia and the Akmonian Diocese; The Jews in Phrygia; The Pentapolis of Phrygia; The Christian Inscriptions of Central Phrygia; and Line of the Trade-Route to the East.
