:''See Anthedon for namesakes, especially the Greek city Anthedon (Boeotia) __NOTOC__ Anthedon was a Hellenistic city near Gaza.〔(Ascalon, Gaza, Negev and Sinai ), the Madaba Mosaic Map〕 and former Roman Catholic bishopric, now a Latin Catholic titular see. == Site and archeology == The location of ancient Anthedon is inside the Gaza Strip, at a place with the Arabic name Tell Blakhiyah (2 kilometers north of the port of Gaza). It has been identified with Tida or Theda, a site near Beit Lahiya known from medieval Arab sources.〔 Immediately to the north of it there is a hill still called Teda; the name seems to be a corruption of "Anthedon". Some parts of the city wall are still standing, and port structures are visible: they have been explored by a Franco-Palestinian archaeological expedition between 1995 and 2005, under the direction of Father Jean-Baptiste Humbert.〔(Études archéologiques des ruines d'Anthedon. ) (French)〕 Potsherds have also been found in sandy dunes. On April 2, 2012, the Ancient city was listed as a tentative World Heritage Site by Palestine.〔("Anthedon Harbour" at UNESCO World Heritage Center )〕 In 2013, Hamas bulldozed part of it in order to build a "terrorist training camp".〔("Hamas Bulldozes UN-Designated Historical Site to Make Room for Terrorist Training Camp" )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anthedon (Palestine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
