AMISOS TREASURE SHORT HISTORY OF AMISOS (SAMSUN) Amisos was founded as a coastal city at a gulf with the same name in Ponthus region in the north of Asia Minor. The city is situated between two rivers, Kýzýlýrmak River and.....? (Halys). It is on a hill at the seaside. The city, which is an open harbour, had played an important role especially in ancient times as not only does it have a close relation with its hinterland, but it is also the only useful harbour between Sinop (Sinope) and Trabzon (Trapezeus). Amisos, which had been dominated by Athens until the end of IV th century B.C., was first occupied by Persians in 370 B.C., and then by Ponthus Kingdom (IIIrd century B.C.), after Anatolia was dominated by Alexander the Great. Ponthus King, Mithridades Europator, made not only Sinop but also Samsun a royal city. The name of Amisos was often heard during the wars between Mithridades and Romans in the first century B.C. it had been surrounded by the Roman General Lucullus, and after it had fallen, it was burned by the people of Amisos. Then, Amisos was included in Roman Empire and constructed again. After this, it achieved its previous fame. During Byzantium period, it became a bishopric centre and continued to develop. During the road enlargement studies in Ancient Amisos city, at Cedit Mahallesi (quarter) by ilkadim Municipality, Samsun, it was informed on Tuesday, 28 November 1995 that a hole was seen and some researchers from the museum went there to work. We see that the jewellery are located in appropriate places (that is, the crown is on the head, necklace is on the neck and the earrings are at the level of the ear) in this tomb that is in the form of an Insitu. Amisos had had its golden age during the Kingdom of Mithridades, VI. Ponthus King, and had become the government centre of the empire. Culture and art became widespread in this period and the most developed mints and ceramic ateliers of the ancient times were established and developed in Amisos. The richness of these graves, the quality and delicacy of the golden death gifts and the symbols used have close similarities with the shapes and symbols on the Amisos Coins minted during the period of Mithridades VI.
