Temnos, the Mountain City Above the Hermos

Field notes

The guide treats Temnos as part of the wider Aiolian landscape rather than as an isolated ruin, linking it to Larissa, Neonteichos, and Panaztepe around the Menemen plain. Its historical account spans local settlement, Persian resistance, Pergamene and Roman administration, and a later episcopal role. The page also records approximate coordinates and elevation, while warning that the hill has no ticket booth, marked visitor route, or other organized-site infrastructure.
