All along the Turkish coast historians say the harbors silted up in late antiquity. I've wondered what happened in late antiquity? My belief is that when the moldboard plow was introduced to Anatolia the soils couldn't handle it.
you're not wrong about Rome! sounds silly but having been to other historic capitals like Athens or Istanbul, was entirely unprepared for Rome. It has the most absurd concentration of sites! And the fact that many are standing 5-6 storeys high its a miracle that rather than the centre being bulldozed that these were preserved
Quality of these uploads are top notch. Another great video, Alex. Thanks man!!!

I'd have to do more research to be able to comment, interesting if that's the case though

Even with it being used as a quarry!
