EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning model of ancient Pergamum, on display at the Pergamon Museum in Berlin, Germany, offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history and architectural wonders of this once great Hellenistic city in Asia Minor. Dating back to the 3rd century BC, Pergamum was a significant cultural and political center in the ancient world, renowned for its impressive temples, libraries, and theaters. At the heart of the model lies the Agora, the bustling marketplace and social hub of the city. Surrounding it are various temples dedicated to gods and goddesses, including the magnificent Altar of Zeus, a colossal structure adorned with intricate friezes depicting scenes from Greek mythology. The Temple of Athena, with its elegant columns and intricate carvings, stands proudly nearby. The model also features the impressive Trajan's Market, a sprawling complex of houses and shops, as well as the grand Roman theater and the Odeon, a smaller, more intimate performance venue. The Library of Pergamum, a symbol of the city's intellectual prowess, is also represented, showcasing the importance of knowledge and learning in ancient Pergamum. This meticulously crafted model, preserved for future generations at the Pergamon Museum, invites us to explore the urban planning and architectural achievements of this ancient city, transporting us back in time to the Hellenistic age and offering a unique perspective on the history of Greece, Rome, and Asia Minor.
