Historical Sketch Of Ephesus. The ancient city of Ephesus was situated on the river Cayster, which falls into the bay of Scala Nova on the western coast of Asia Minor. The traditional birthplace of the goddess Diana was in the Ephesian territory, and is described by Strabo as a thick wood, through which ran the river Cenchrius, near to which there was a mountain called Solmissus. The wood, the river, and the mountain were most probably in the immediate vicinity of the site which was afterwards selected for the temple dedicated to Diana, and which has now been located to the north-east of the city, and nearly a mile from the nearest gate. A city of more or less importance had probably existed in the Ephesian territory for several centuries, before Androclus, the Athenian, with his followers, came and settled there, and thus founded one of the twelve cities of the Ionian Confederation, B.C. 1044. The Dorian migration dates back to a period sixty years earlier. According to Herodotus, they colonized the western coast of Asia Minor, and probably settled as far north as Ephesus. Pausanias tells us that Androclus drove out of the country the Lydians and others who dwelt in the upper city, but he suffered those who resided about the temple to remain undisturbed upon their swearing allegiance to him as king.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Discoveries at Ephesus: Including the Site and Remains of the Great Temple of Diana The object of the work which I now offer to the public is to lay before it a narrative of the discoveries at Ephesus, and the results of the excavations which were carried on, for nearly eleven years, under the auspices of the Trustees of the British Museum. My chief purpose in undertaking the excavations, which were commenced in 1863, was to find the remains of the Great Temple of Diana which had been buried for so many centuries. All trace of it above ground had disappeared, and many even doubted whether such a building ever existed.

Download or read book Childe Harold s Pilgrimage written by Lord Byron and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Childe Harold's Pilgrimage is a lengthy narrative poem in four parts written by Lord Byron. The poem describes the travels and reflections of a world-weary young man who, disillusioned with a life of pleasure and revelry, looks for distraction in foreign lands. In a wider sense, it is an expression of the melancholy and disillusionment felt by a generation weary of the wars of the post-Revolutionary and Napoleonic eras.
