Aspendos, Pamphylia, c. 380 - 325 B.C.
|Aspendos|, |Aspendos,| |Pamphylia,| |c.| |380| |-| |325| |B.C.|, Aspendos is about 40 km east of Antalya, Turkey about 16 km inland on the Eurymedon River. In 546 B.C. it fell to Persia. After a Persian defeat in 467, the city joined the Attic-Delos Maritime League. Persia took it again in 411 B.C., Alexander in 333 B.C., and Rome in 190 B.C. Although often subject to powerful empires, the city usually retained substantial autonomy.
