In 330 AD, Emperor Constantine I the Great founded a city on the site of the ancient settlement of Byzantium and named it Constantinople in his honor. Thanks to the attention of the Byzantine emperor and his subsequent successors, the city remained one of the most important metropolises of the Mediterranean until it was conquered by the Turks in 1453.

The reader is presented with a unique study of the cultural and historical heritage of Constantinople, written with special attention to the archaeological heritage of the legendary city: royal palaces, luxurious churches, fortifications, etc.

The publication will be of interest to historians, cultural scientists, as well as a wide range of readers interested in the history of Byzantium. The translation was made by the Russian historian, archaeologist and researcher of Byzantium A. Yu. Vinogradov.
