About Blaundus, Uşak province
Blaundus was founded in the Hellenistic period, around the third century BCE, likely by Macedonian veterans settled in Lydia after Alexander the Great's campaigns. Built on a plateau ringed by a steep ravine, the city later flourished under Roman and Byzantine rule, with temples, a theater, and walls. It served as a regional center in western Anatolia for centuries.
