Şuhut

Şuhut stands on the site of ancient Synnada, a city of Phrygia in the Anatolian interior. Synnada gave its name to a prized ornamental marble quarried at nearby Docimeion: its pale stone, marked with purple veins, travelled far beyond the plateau. Inscriptions from the city and its surroundings preserve the names and dedications of people who lived here under Roman rule, when the settlement was an administrative centre for the surrounding district.
