Anatolia's District of
Tarsus
Steward:
The ancient name is Tarsos, possibly derived from a pagan god, Tarku. The city may have been of Semitic origin, and is mentioned as Tarsisi in the campaigns of Esarhaddon, as well as several times in the campaigns of Shalmaneser I and Sennacherib.
If you have any questions about this 'hood, or would like something added or changes, please leave a message with Samdzimari Scyles. She is the Steward of the Transcaucasus neighborhood. Thank you!
