Wikipedia Description

Laodicea on the Lycus (Greek: Λαοδίκεια πρὸς τοῦ Λύκου Laodikia pros tou Lykou; Latin: Laodicea ad Lycum, also transliterated as Laodiceia or Laodikeia) (modern Turkish: Laodikeia) was an ancient city in Asia Minor, now Turkey, on the river Lycus (Çürüksu). It was located in the Hellenistic regions of Caria and Lydia, which later became the Roman Province of Phrygia Pacatiana. It is now situated near the modern city of Denizli. Since 2002 archaeology has been continuing by Pamukkale University in Denizli followed by intensive restoration work.[1] In 2013 the archaeological site was inscribed in the Tentative List of World Heritage Sites in Turkey.[2] More on Wikipedia
