Question: Roman aristocrat Gaius Plancius Varus was born and raised in which South Asia Minor regional capital?
Context: Gaius Plancius Varus was a Roman who lived between the 1st century and 2nd century in the Roman Empire.  Varus was the son of Roman Senator, Proconsul Marcus Plancius Varus and the Herodian Princess Julia.  His sister was Plancia Magna, he was therefore the maternal uncle to Gaius Julius Plancius Varus Cornutus.  Varus was born and raised in Perga, the capital of the Roman province of Pamphylia. Bithynia ( ; Greek Βιθυνία "Bithynia") was an ancient region, kingdom and Roman province in the northwest of Asia Minor, adjoining the Propontis, the Thracian Bosporus and the Euxine Sea.  It bordered Mysia to the southwest, Paphlagonia to the northeast along the Pontic coast, and Phrygia to the southeast towards the interior of Asia Minor.  Bithynia was an independent kingdom from the 4th century BC.  Its capital Nicomedia was rebuilt on the site of ancient Astacus in 264 BC by Nicomedes I of Bithynia.  Bithynia was bequeathed to the Roman Republic in 74 BC, and became united with the Pontus region as the province of Bithynia et Pontus, in the 7th century incorporated into the Byzantine Opsikion theme. The Caucasian race (also Caucasoid, or Europid) is a grouping of human beings historically regarded as a biological taxon, which, depending on which of the historical race classifications used, have usually included some or all of the ancient and modern populations of Europe, the Caucasus, Asia Minor, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, Western Asia, Central Asia and South Asia. Gaius Julius Plancius Varus Cornutus was a man of Roman Senatorial rank who lived in the Roman Empire in the 2nd century. Peraia (Greek: Περαία , before 1927: Κότσανα , "Kotsana";) is a village in the Pella regional unit of Macedonia, Greece on the bank of Lake Vegoritida.  The village is located south of the town of Arnissa within the Vegoritida municipal unit which belongs to the municipality of Edessa.  The village was formerly inhabited by a Turkish-speaking Muslim population.  The original Turkish name of the village was Kotsana.  After the 1922 population exchange between Turkey and Greece, the village was inhabited by Greeks who had come from Asia Minor.  The Greek inhabitants came from the following locations in Asia Minor including Kuri, Peladari, Tsanakalai, Appoloniatha as well as Armenia. Claudia Marcella was the name of the two daughters of Octavia Minor, the sister of Roman emperor Augustus, by her first husband, the consul Gaius Claudius Marcellus.  According to the Roman Historian Suetonius, they were known as The Marcellae sisters, and they are also known as the two Marcellae.  The sisters were born in Rome.  Between 40 BC-36 BC, they lived with their mother and their stepfather Triumvir Mark Antony in Athens, Greece.  After 36 BC they accompanied their mother when she returned to Rome with their siblings.  They were raised and educated by their mother, their maternal uncle, Roman emperor Augustus, and their maternal aunt-in-marriage Roman Empress Livia Drusilla.  These two daughters of Octavia Minor and Gaius Claudius Marcellus with their siblings, provide a critical link between the past of the Roman Republic and the new Roman Empire.  The marriages of the sisters and the children born to their unions assured republican family lines into the next generation. Julia Tertulla was a Roman woman who lived in the 1st century and 2nd century in the Roman Empire.  Tertulla was the daughter of suffect consul Gaius Julius Cornutus Tertullus and the identity of her mother is unknown.  Tertulla was born and raised in Perga, the capital of the Roman province of Pamphylia.  She was the paternal aunt to Gaius Julius Plancius Varus Cornutus. Pamphylia (Greek: Παμφυλία , ) was a former region in the south of Asia Minor, between Lycia and Cilicia, extending from the Mediterranean to Mount Taurus (modern-day Antalya province, Turkey).  It was bounded on the north by Pisidia and was therefore a country of small extent, having a coast-line of only about 120 km (75 miles) with a breadth of about 50 km (30 miles).  Under the Roman administration the term Pamphylia was extended so as to include Pisidia and the whole tract up to the frontiers of Phrygia and Lycaonia, and in this wider sense it is employed by Ptolemy. Herodes Atticus (Greek: Ἡρῴδης ὁ Ἀττικός , "Hērōidēs ho Attikos"; 101– 177), or Atticus Herodes, was a distinguished and rich Greek aristocrat and sophist who served as a Roman senator.  Appointed consul at Rome in 143, he was the first Greek to hold the rank of "consul ordinarius", as opposed to "consul suffectus".  In Latin, his full name was given as Lucius Vibullius Hipparchus Tiberius Claudius Atticus Herodes (Greek: Λεύκιος Βιβούλλιος Ἵππαρχος Τιβέριος Κλαύδιος Ἀττικὸς Ἡρῴδης ).  According to Philostratus, Herodes Atticus was a notable proponent of the Second Sophistic.  M.I. Finley described Herodes Atticus as "patron of the arts and letters (and himself a writer and scholar of importance), public benefactor on an imperial scale, not only in Athens but elsewhere in Greece and Asia Minor, holder of many important posts, friend and kinsman of emperors." The golden jackal ("Canis aureus"), also known as the Eurasian golden jackal, common jackal, or Asiatic jackal is a canine native to southeastern and central Europe, Asia Minor, the Middle East and South Asia.  It is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, due to its widespread range in areas with optimum food and shelter.  It is a social species, the basic social unit of which consists of a breeding pair and any offspring it might have.  The golden jackal is very adaptable, being able to exploit many foodstuffs, from fruit and insects to small ungulates.  As of 2005, MSW3 recognises 13 subspecies, though genetic studies published in 2015 revealed that six supposed golden jackal subspecies living in Africa were members of a separate species, "Canis anthus", reducing the number of actual golden jackal subspecies to seven.
