Ancient Phrygia in the west of the Anatolian plateau, the country around the sources of the Sakarya Nehri (river) within the triangle of the modern cities of Afyon, Eskisehir and Ankara, was named after the western Indo-Europeans who came here from Europe around 1200 BC and left their mark as skilled craftsmen with a culture of their own. [2]

Its major cities included Laodicea, Hierapolis and Colossae; the Phrygian cities of Pisidian Antioch and Iconium were located in Phrygia Galatica. [1]

The Trojan language did not survive; consequently, its exact relationship to the Phrygian language and the affinity of Phrygian society to that of Troy remain open questions. [3]

The Phrygian language, which died out in the 6th c. AD, was closely related to Greek, as can be seen from 80 ancient Phrygian inscriptions (7th-4th c. BC.), written in a script rather like Greek and over 110 neo-Phrygian writings in Greek from Roman times. [...] The Phrygians arrived in Anatolia in 1200 BC, among the migrating tribes known as the “people of the Aegean Sea “. [2]

It was named for a people whom the Greeks called Phryges and who dominated Anatolia between the Hittite collapse (12th century BC) and ascent of Lydia (7th century BC). [1]

The Phrygian language survived until about the 6th century AD, when it finally gave way to Greek. [3]

A Large district in central Asia Minor; a mountainous region, it lay in the western watershed of the great Anatolian plateau and was best suited for grazing. [1]

The skeleton of King Midas was laid on a large bench, surrounded by other benches full of gifts for the afterworld. [...] Its early history is only briefly chronicled (Herodotus), recounting the suicide of its last king, Midas, in Gordion when it fell to the Cimmerians (676 BC.). [2]

The mythic Midas of Thrace, accompanied by a band of his people, traveled to Asia Minor to wash away the taint of his unwelcome “golden touch” in the river Pactolus. [...] Subsequently the state of Phrygia arose in the 8th century BC with its capital at Gordium. [3]

An ancient region of central Asia Minor in modern-day central Turkey. [4]

It was settled c. 1200 B.C. and flourished from the eighth to the sixth century, after which it came under the influence of Lydia, Persia, Greece, Rome, and Byzantium. [1]
