Ephessus proudly houses one of the seven ancient wonders of the world; the Temple of Artemis(it was rebuilt several times, in its latest form dates from the third century B.C.) The city, whose wealth and patronage supported its splendid architectural program, was dedicated to the goddes Artemis. The precise date of the city's foundation is not known but the legend says that Efes was first founded by Women Warriors of the Amazon in the 11th century B.C. and later inhabited by Ionians. In short time the city became very important. It became the trade centre of Asia during the reign of the Imperor Augustus.
