BERGAMA (PERGAMON)
Pergamon in the Aegean Region was one of the most important Ionian cities, and developed after it came under the Roman Empire. It was famous for the Temple of Zeus, which was later taken to Britain. The famous doctor of antiquity; Galen had worked in the sanatorium of Bergama and wrote around 500 medical books. In the time of early Christianity, the famous Serapis Temple was turned into a church and dedicated to St.
John. That church in Bergama is the one of ''Seven Churches'' in Anatolia..
