Description: "Throughout its existence, the city of Hierapolis and the travertine pools formed by the thermal springs have fascinated local residents, passers-through and travellers. Travellers passing along the main street have caught their breath at its magnificent monumental fountains (nymphaeum), and the city's public baths, fed by thermal waters, have distributed healing as well as cleansing and purification. Due to these features of Hierapolis, it was showered with praise in an inscription engraved on the diazoma of its theatre as sacred, golden city, Hierapolis! The foremost land of broad Asia; revered for the rills of the nymphs; adorned with splendour."--Back cover.
