Abstract: district of Muğla province. Stratonikeia is that rare site where there are structures ranging from ancient times to the Ottoman and Turkish Republic periods. Thus, a visitor has the opportunity to see many structures from different periods spanning three thousand years. After 281 BC the Seleucid King Antiochos I changed the name of the city to Stratonikeia after his former stepmother and later wife. However, the city existed before the Hellenistic period and was one of the major settlements in the region. Fortifications of the Leleg type and some other structures were constructed in the Archaic and Classical periods. In particular, in the period of the Hekatomnids in the 4th century BC, both upper and lower cities were surrounded by new fortification walls, which had at least four gates. Examples of Carian vases were found during the excavations and surveys carried out in Stratonikeia by Yusuf Boysal. They dated from the Late Geometric and Archaic periods. Sub-Mycenaean and Carian vases found in Straonikeia have also been published by George Hanfmann and Jane Waldbaum. According to this publication, Stratonikeia or its immediate vicinity had a Sub-Mycenaean settlement. There are inscriptions in Greek on the interior façade of the Bouleuterion north anta wall. One of them is about the calendar made by Menippos and dates from the beginning of the first century B.C. The calendar carries the date 1505, which refers to the year of the foundation of the city itself. Thus, according to historical records and archaeological finds, there was a settlement at Stratonikeia from about the mid-second millennium B.C.
