History of Niš : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of Niš Niš is one of the oldest cities in the Balkans and Europe, and has from ancient times been considered a gateway between the East and the West.〔http://www.metimes.com/storyview.php?StoryID=20070515-082637-6667r〕 The Paleo-Balkan Thracians inhabited the area in the Iron Age, and Triballians dwelled here prior to the Celtic invasion in 279 BC which established the Scordisci as masters of the region. Naissus was among the cities taken in the Roman conquest in 75 BC. The Romans built the ''Via Militaris'' in the 1st century, with Naissus being one of the key towns. Niš is also notable as the birthplace of Constantine the Great, the first Christian Roman Emperor and the founder of Constantinople,〔(New Advent Catholic encyclopedia: Constantine the Great )〕 as well as two other Roman emperors, Constantius III and Justin I. It is home to one of Serbia's oldest Christian churches dating to the 4th century in the suburb of Mediana. ==Etymology== The city's early name under the Roman Empire remained Naissus, which is the Latin name derived from its original name Naissos. The etymology of the original name Naissos ("city of the nymphs") was derived from a mythical creature of Greek mythology - Naiad (from the Greek νάειν, "to flow," and νᾶμα, "running water") which was the nymph of freshwater streams rivers and lakes. Niš (, ) is a possible location of Nysa, a mythical place in Greek mythology where the young god Dionysus was raised. Navissos was the name during the Scordisci Celtic settlement in the 3rd century BC.〔(Nis,Britanica )〕
