Knowledge is power and ancient leaders knew it. From the famous Library of Alexandria to the private Villa of the Papyri, their rise and fall have left us eternal lessons of the significance of safeguarding knowledge.

Pergamon

Pergamon (also Pergamum) was a major intellectual and cultural center in Mysia (northwest Asia Minor, modern-day Turkey) which flourished under the Attalid Dynasty (281-133 BCE) during the Hellenistic Period. It was the capital of the Kingdom of Pergamon and remained an important city for the Romans, Byzantines, and Ottoman Turks until its abandonment.
