Editor's Note
Tavium, or Tavia, was the chief city of the Galatian tribe of the Trocmi, one of three Celtic tribes that migrated from the Danube Valley to Galatia in the 3rd century BCE. Owing to its position on major trade roads, Tavium was an important commercial centre. The site was successively occupied by Hittites, Cimmerians, Persians, Celts, Greeks, Romans, Seljuks and Ottomans, and in the Roman period served as an important crossroads and a stopping place on the caravan routes.
