Antandros

Antandros, after the Persians were banished from Anatolia by Alexander the Great, minted coins as a free city in the second half of 4th century B.C. Antandros, which was a part of the Perga mum Kingdom during the Hellenistic era, later on became a part of the Roman rule, just like the whole of Anatolia, and became an episcopacy center during Christianity.

The locals who lived in the city couldn't protect themselves against the attacks from Arabs and settled in $ahinkale in the fahinderesi Canyon after abandoning Antandros. The tower which is reached through a narrow pathway and the settlement area on top of fahinkale Hill are still protected. Water cisterns, the living areas and the remains of the antique pathway are still visible today.

Antique writer Strabo states that the Leleg clan had settled in the region from Bababurnu (Lekton) to Mount Ida. The region, which was first settled by Mysians, later on became a settlement in 7th century B.C. by Aeolis who came from Limni. We know from antique sources that the Pelasgians settled in Antandros during this time.

We know from Herodotus that Antandros was a Pelasgian city, was invaded by Persian commander Otoneis after the mutiny in Western Anatolia, and that Xerxes passed by the city while on his way to invade Greece.
