The book is a comprehensive study of the region's history, offering valuable insights into the lives and customs of the people who lived there. It is an essential read for anyone interested in ancient history, the history of Christianity, or the history of Turkey.1895. Part One of Volume One. Ramsay, the first Professor of Classical Archaeology at Oxford University, pioneered the study of antiquity in what is today known as western Turkey. He went on to devote the latter part of his life to applying what he had learned to the study of the New Testament. He is also acknowledged as the outstanding authority on the life of Paul. In this work Ramsay attempts to throw some light on the question of how Phrygia has come to present the aspect that it now shows to the traveler. Contents of Part I.
