AMISOS
TREASURE SHORT HISTORY OF AMISOS
(SAMSUN)
Amisos was founded as a coastal
city at a gulf with the same name
in Ponthus region in the north of
Asia Minor. The city is situated
between two rivers, Kýzýlýrmak
River and.....? (Halys). It is on
a hill at the seaside. The city,
which is an open harbour, had played
an important role especially in
ancient times as not only does it
have a close relation with its hinterland,
but it is also the only useful harbour
between Sinop (Sinope) and Trabzon
(Trapezeus). Amisos, which had been
dominated by Athens until the end
of IV th century B.C., was first
occupied by Persians in 370 B.C.,
and then by Ponthus Kingdom (IIIrd
century B.C.), after Anatolia was
dominated by Alexander the Great.
Ponthus King, Mithridades Europator,
made not only Sinop but also Samsun
a royal city. The name of Amisos
was often heard during the wars
between Mithridades and Romans in
the first century B.C. it had been
surrounded by the Roman General
Lucullus, and after it had fallen,
it was burned by the people of Amisos.
Then, Amisos was included in Roman
Empire and constructed again. After
this, it achieved its previous fame.
During Byzantium period, it became
a bishopric centre and continued
to develop.
During the road enlargement studies
in Ancient Amisos city, at Cedit
Mahallesi (quarter) by ilkadim Municipality,
Samsun, it was informed on Tuesday,
28 November 1995 that a hole was
seen and some researchers from the
museum went there to work.
We see that the jewellery
are located in appropriate places
(that is, the crown is on the head,
necklace is on the neck and the
earrings are at the level of the
ear) in this tomb that is in the
form of an Insitu. Amisos
had had its golden age during the
Kingdom of Mithridades, VI. Ponthus
King, and had become the government
centre of the empire. Culture and
art became widespread in this period
and the most developed mints and
ceramic ateliers of the ancient
times were established and developed
in Amisos. The richness of these
graves, the quality and delicacy
of the golden death gifts and the
symbols used have close similarities
with the shapes and symbols on the
Amisos Coins minted during the period
of Mithridades VI.
