Assos: Agora, Necropolis, Theater

The apostle Paul, on his third missionary journey, walked from Alexandria Troas to Assos, a distance of about 20 miles. At Assos he joined his companions, who had come from Troas by ship, and together they set sail for Mitylene, Kios, and eventually Miletus (Acts 20:15).
