The title is a little misleading.
Bergama is simply the Turkish name for
Pergamon. The new town lies on the footsteps of the Upper
Acropolis. The Byzantine tower lies above the
theater.
Through the ages, Pergamon came under the control of Lydians, Persians, Greeks, Attalids, Romans, Goths, Sassanids, Byzantines, Umayyads, Seljuks and Ottomans.
