The Conservation of the Roman town of Zeugma 2000-2004

[@Nicholas.Tsagkos]

Zeugma is a Greek city that was founded in the early 3rd century BC as the city of Seleucia by Seleucus I Nicator, a successor to Alexander the Great. Take well care of these amazing Greek cultural treasures.

[@Paulynyc]

Turkey is the very fortunate custodian of a treasure trove and ancient Greek and Byzantine antiquities that bear witness to the indelible stamp of Hellenism across Anatolia--no matter how hard the Turkish Ministry of Culture tries to deny or mislead.

[@alexmousa1180]

Additionally to that Turkey is gaining money from the greek cultural heritage from the tourists visiting all the museums with greek treasures and the greek ancient sites, which are now in turkish land claiming that all the greek and roman antiquities is their own cultural heritage from their..... "ancestors"!!!!

Why in this Roman town the name and all the writings are in Greek?

[@Anarchj]

Because that part of the Roman Empire belonged once to the lands conquered by Alexander the Great, who choosed greek as the main language for administration. When Alexander died his Empire was divided in multiple reigns that all became highly influenced by greek culture and where the higher classes spoke in greek (as considered the most prestigious language)

[@areopolitis1]

Nice video... A little imprecise though. Zeugma is a Greek town since the times of Alexander the Great. That's why all frescoes and inscriptions are in Greek, and they depict Greek Mythology. Romans passed later from the place.

[@stefst2]

It was a Greek town and not Roman, a town of Hellenistic period from Seleukos dynasty after the death of Alexander the Great. All the inscriptions on mosaics are written in Greek. We, Greeks, can read them all as they refer to Greek mythology. Can you read them you Turks? Of course not, because when this town was created your Mongols ancestors were somewhere in central Asia.

Imagine how many more are sunken below the river that flooded the town. 5. It is not public Turkish legacy. IT IS GREEK.

The mosaics are Roman and were situated in Roman villas. Zeugma was part of the Roman Empire at the time.

[@Ozymandias88]

+Joan Sutton Actually you're wrong. These mosaics are thought to be around 2.200 years old which puts them before the Roman Empire even became an empire, let alone having reached anywhere near where the town of Zeugma (which was known by a different name) was located.

I see on further reading that these mosaics date back to about 200 BCE.

[@Ozymandias88]

That date - if it's accurate - is closer to the period that Rome was at that region but it's still before it. Rome started wrestling for control of that area after the 2nd Punic wars and during the Parthian - Roman wars so i'd say it's roughly between 100 BC to 220 AD i think. I'm not an expert obviously, but think 200 BC is still kind of early to start seeing Roman villas in that area. But then again, the chronology can always have errors so..

Many early Romans were Etruscan. And most Romans had Etruscan blood.

These mosaics were found in Roman villas at Zeugma. When they were created, Zeugma was part of the Roman Empire. But the Romans were the first great admirers of Greek art, which is unsurpassed. We would know much less about the ancient Greeks and their superb art if it weren't for the Romans. In these incredible mosaics, artists depicted the Greek gods and scenes from Greek mythology - the Romans were great imitators of the Greeks and we can see how they admired them immensely - imitation is the highest form of flattery, they say. We can see an exciting example of beautiful 3rd Century BC Greek mosaic work at Amphipolis in northern Greece, which is now being excavated.

[@vinrusso821]

The town was started in 300 BC, the roman's didn't make it part of the empire for over 300 years . Not to mention, the western part of Anatolia was mostly Greeks. Just because a province is part of the empire doesn't mean there is a bunch of Romans living there. You can clearly see the Greek writing.

The explanation is simple.

Ancient Serbica and Cyrillic script is very close letters. Kyrillos and Methodios did not do a big job. It is no coincidence that the Serbs in March celebrate the new 7527th year. That certainly did not bring us Kyrillos and Methodios. We all have the same roots.

I understand Macedonian language. Macedonian people understand me even if I talk in Serbian to them. This is not the case with Greek people. Does Macedonian people speak ancient Greek nowadays?..I don't thing so... I do not clam this is not ancient Greek I'm just telling you something truthfully which you should consider when thinking about this.

[@panoskatselis2434]

The answer is very simple dear Orthodox Brother (from the greek word Ορθοδοξία that means ''the right glory'' -you write ортодонтска that means nothing in your language, examples Ορθογώνιο= the right angle , Ορθώς = right , Ορθή σκέψη = the right thought). So here we go. At the past there where 2 Greek monks from the Byzantine time, Kyrillos and Methodios. These guys sended by the Patriarch to the Barbarian slavic world at the north borders of the empire to Christianise them, to made them allies ofc and stop them from the raidings to the empire. The problem when they reach there was that they didnt had write system and the language stay alive only by speaking (so how they could speak about God and left some writings about christianity???). So they made an alphabet. The kyril alphabet. They translate every Slavic speak into letters and THEY USE FOR BASE THE GREEK ALPHABET. (part 1) i will come back with part 2.

[@panoskatselis2434]

Part 2. Macedonia was is and will be Greek. But i can example this not through history this time but from a fact. Example i am Greek and i go first time to Cyprus. There i hear Cypriotic and i can undestand everything. So i think Cypriots are .... Greeks like me. Maybe now u can understand here something. U are Serbian and u went to Skopia for first time (Macedonia was is and will be always Greek). There u hear Skopian Vardaskian and u understand everything. So u think Skopians are.....

Part 4. Conclusions For part 1 u must undestand the origin of your alphabet (from the greek word AΛΦΑΒΗΤΟ from the first 2 letters of greek alphabet ΑΛΦΑ (Α), ΒΗΤΑ (Β) . Who was Kyrillos and Methodios. Why they had Greek Alphabet as base to made Kyrillic and not Latin like other slav nations Slovenian , slovakia, Croatia etc. I could answer here because they accept Orthodoxy and not Catholic like those guys did, search it. For part 2 u must think i am Serbian so i am Slav , who is it possible to understand someone who says i am not Slav and i have origin as Macedonian? 2 are the answers here and only. 1st this means that Serbians are Macedonians and not slavs or 2nd these skopians are slavs like me and those they say about ancestors at Macedonia are lie. For part 3 u must learn that all those periods we had many Greek dialects. For example Alexandrians time world used ''koine' Greek. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koine_Greek Another example . ΜΑΚΕΔΝΟΣ (ΜΑKEDNOS) at Argian dialect means ''tall''. And Alexander said that our decent is from the city of Argos. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argos Search search search and again search to find your answers.

To drama tis Sirias ine i fanatiki musulmani tu Aisis pu catastrefun(catastrophy) tin patrida tus ( patriotes= patriots and guess where they live, to their patrida = nation). I politiki tis Athinas ine i Dimokratia ke tis Spartis i Tirrania (Tyrrany). I Romei ine ethnikistes kai i polis tis Alexandrias ine i patrida ton Egiption. I barbari ethnikistes tis Albanias ex-islamizun to Kossobo. I algebra ine mathimatika. I theraphia tu stomachiu ginete me pharmaca. To phenomeno Slatan ibraimovits ehi duo pedia (=childrens like pedophyle =from pedi=child nad phyle=friend ΠΑΙΔΟΦΙΛΟΣ , ΠΑΙΔΙ(pedi) =child + ΦΙΛΟΣ (phyle,phylos)=friend , like ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΣ i told u before remember? friend of horse).

Bratislav Isailović You ought to be very grateful to the greeks Kyrillos and Methodius who created the Cyrillic alphabet, which is more closely resembled the greek alphabet. So, you can read a part of these greek words due to the greek origins of your slavic alphabet, due to the Greeks.....!!! Read history my friend....!

Even the word ΖΕΥΓΜΑ (Zeugma) is GREEK and you call it a roman town. How rediculous!

[@unciclistacontraelsistema8620]

Greek Ancient Town. Later, Roman.

These are Greek from the time of Alexander the Great. Zevgma was a Greek city. The Turks lie and call them Roman. Pathetic.
