Samandag (Seleucia Pieria)
Samandag (Seleucia Pieria) was the port city of Antioch in the time of antiquity, initially built during the Hellenistic era and subsequently enhanced by the Romans.
As the entrance of Antioch to the Mediterranean Sea, the city heavily influenced trade, naval, and regional transport activities.
Among the significant ruins are the harbor installations, cemetery, and the well, known tunnel of Titus, constructed to regulate water flow.
Sitting by the sea in Hatay, Seleucia Pieria is a testimonial of the military and commercial significance of the ancient seaports.
