Ura was very important port on the east Mediterranean coast of the southern Anatolia, in the Late Bronze Age and Iron Age. Probably located modern Silifke, or further west of Gilindere.〔Trevor Bryce, The Peoples and Places of Ancient Western Asia, Routledge, Oxon, 2011, page.746,〕 In the Late Bronze Age Ura belonged to the kingdom of Tarhuntassa. Ura was the major port of Anatolia to which grain and goods were brought from Egypt and Canaan via Ugarit for transshipment to the Hitite Empire .〔Trevor Bryce, The Kingdom of Hittites, Oxford Univercitiy Press, New York, 2005, page 331,〕 Ura is perhaps to be identified with the site of Soli (later Pompeipolis). This city was founded by Greeks on the Mediterranean coast, in 8th century BC.〔Trevor Bryce, The Peoples and Places of Ancient Western Asia, Routledge, Oxon, 2011, page.746,〕 ==References== 〔 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「Ura, Anatolia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
