Cities of the Ancient World - Colossi. Time passes, many things change, but people have the same values as thousands of years ago.
Colossi is a city located in the region of Phrygia, in the western part of modern Turkey. It is still unknown in what language the inhabitants of the Colossus spoke. It was located 120 miles from Ephesus, in the valley of the Lycus River in the eastern part of one of the provinces of Rome Asia.
Colossae (Latin Colossae, Colosse) is an ancient city in Phrygia on the Lycus River that existed between the 5th century BC. E. And XII century AD. E.

In Colossians lived many different nationalities and estates. At that time, the indigenous inhabitants of Phrygia remained a little in percentage terms.
Phrygians were carried away by mysticism and ritual orgies. Worshiping Dionysus, the son of Zeus and Tsemely. During the Roman rule, many Greeks moved to live in these lands and were able to quickly change the way and culture of local residents.
In Colossus lived as a significant number of Jews. Antiochus the Great in the 3rd century BC. He moved several thousand Jewish families from Mesopotamia and Babylon to these places.
Cities large and small, ancient and modern are very similar. Which is very interesting, no matter at what time of history: before our era, in the Middle Ages or today in basically have the same basic values:
It is a desire to live in safety, to have everything necessary for life, to take care of yourself and your relatives and friends. Regardless of the time, these values were always present among people.
