Ephesus, one of the most significant centers of the ancient era, was continuously inhabited for approximately 9000 years, starting from prehistoric times and spanning the Hellenistic, Roman, Eastern Roman, Beylik (Principalities), and Ottoman periods. Throughout its history, Ephesus has been a highly important port city and a cultural and commercial center.
