History[edit | edit source]

1st century BC[edit | edit source]

In the 1st century BC, the capital of the civilization moved to the Bosporus, where in a strategically advantageous location the narrowest part of the Bosporus emerged a city of Yoros, approximately 30 kilometres north of modern Istanbul. It is here that the imposing ruins of this city and a fortress called Yoros survive to this day.

3rd century AC[edit | edit source]

The capital of the civilization moved slightly south, where a new city emerged under the same name of Jerusalem. Over the course of time it was called Constantinople, and later Istanbul. The name of Jerusalem was floating and at different times was applied to different cities.
