|Plotina|, |Plotina,| |Augusta| |105| |-| |129| |A.D.,| |Wife| |of| |Trajan,| |Gordus-Julia,| |Lydia|, Gordus (also known as Julia Gordus or Iulia Gordos) was an ancient Greek city in eastern Lydia, near the source of the River Hyllus, or Phrygius, later called Glaucus, a northern tributary of the Hermus. It was a strategically important town founded by the Seleucid Kings. The Julio-Claudian Roman emperors renamed the city Julia Gordos in the 1st century. The city achieved the status of a polis under the Flavians. It was the home to Appolophanes the physician, and there is epigraphical evidence of both pagans and Christians in the town.
