It deals with the country south of the river Maeander, the ancient Caria, corresponding closely with the present vilayet of Mugla, "a fascinating country, with a character of its own". ***In The Iliad the Carians appear as allies of the Trojans, "barbarous of speech" - a harshness of dialect characteristic of Mugla today. Liberated by Alexander, fought over by his successors, and involved in the Roman civil wars of the first century B.C., Caria was later to enjoy the peace of the early Roman Empire. ***The larger cities were more or less purely Greek from their foundation, but most of the smaller towns never lost their Carian nature. Among those included are Labraynda, Cnidus, Caunus, Aphrodisias and Hierapolis, all enriched by recent excavation; Stratoniceia, whose ruins attest 'the solidity and magnificence which they once possessed'; Bargylia, remote and desolate; and perhaps most famous of all, Halicarnassus, capital city of Mausolus, whose superb tomb stood for over 1,500 years. ***Professor Bean describes these sites, and many more. Numerous maps, plans, photographs and sketches illustrate the text, written in the incomparable style that marks his previous books.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper).' ***A first edition of this work, in very nice collectable condition. One of four archaeological guides to Turkey written by George Bean. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
