Edremit (District), Balıkesir : ウィキペディア英語版
Edremit, Balıkesir

Edremit () is a district in Balıkesir Province, Turkey, as well as the central city of that district, on the west coast of Turkey, not far from the Greek island of Lesbos.
It is situated at the tip of the gulf with the same name (Gulf of Edremit), with its town center a few kilometers inland, and is an important center of trade, along with the other towns that are situated on the same gulf (namely Ayvalık, Gömeç, Burhaniye and Havran). It is also one of the largest district centers of Balıkesir Province. The district of Edremit, especially around Kazdağı, is largely covered with forests.
== History ==
The name of Edremit corresponds to that of the ancient city of Adramyttion () or Adramytteion (Άδραμύττειον) or, in Latinized form Adramyttium, a city of Asia Minor on the coast of Mysia. It was to this port that the ship belonged on which the author of the Acts of the Apostles (probably Luke the Evangelist) and Paul the Apostle set out from Caesarea Maritima for the first part of their journey to Rome. The ship, which appears to have been a coastal trading vessel, conveyed them only to Myra, in Lycia, whence they sailed on an Alexandrian ship for Italy.
In classical times, Adramyttium received settlers from Athens and Delos.〔(William Smith, ''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography'' (1854): "Adramyttium" )〕〔(Gustav Hirschfeld, "Adramytteion" in ''Paulys Realencyclopädie der classischen Altertumswissenschaft'', Vol. I,1, Stuttgart 1893 )〕〔Alexander Kazhdan (editor), ''The Oxford Dictionary of Byzantium'' (Oxford University Press, 1991, 3 vols., ISBN 0195046528) vol. 1, 227, s. v. Atramyttion〕 It later belonged to the Roman province or Asia, whose capital was Ephesus.
Adramyttium became the seat of a Christian suffragan diocese of the Metropolitan Archbishopric of Ephesus, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Adramyttium, which only remains as a Latin Catholic titular see.
In May 1914, thousands of Muslim refugees who had fled from the Balkans arrived in the town of Adramyttium and proceeded to ransack the shops and homes of the town's Greek community. According to Arnold J. Toynbee, the Ottoman government armed and organised the refugees. Many Greeks found refuge in the town church before fleeing to the harbour where they were then granted passage to the neighbouring island of Lesbos. Turks continued to massacre or evict Greeks in the following months in surrounding villages.〔Giles Milton, Paradise Lost: Smyrna 1922, pp. 48-50〕
The ancient city was on the coast, 13 kilometres southwest of the modern city and 4 kilometres west of Burhaniye.〔(Mordtmann, J. H.; Ménage, V. L.. "Edremit." Encyclopédie de l’Islam. Brill Online, 2014. Reference. 30 September 2014 )〕
