The modern name, Aydin was derived from the name of a leader of the Beyliks Period. It was the birthplace of Anthemius who was one of the two architects of the Hagia Sophia. Anthemius of Tralles (c. 6C AD) He was an architect, mathematician and engineer. Anthemius, with Isidorus of Miletus, built the great church of the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul for the Byzantine Emperor Justinian I in the remarkably brief span of five years (532-37 AD). Although Anthemius was not an architect or master mason by training, he wrote a treatise on the geometry of conical sections, had a knowledge of projective geometry and was familiar with the mechanical inventions of Archimedes.

Haghia Sophia is, as a technical feat, one of the greatest architectural achievements of all time. The two men Justinian chose to supervise the construction of the building were Anthemius of Tralles and Isidorus of Miletus They lived in the first half of the sixth century. Anthemius was born in the ancient city of Tralles in Asia Minor (Turkey) and probably studied in Alexandria. An experimental scientist and theoretician, he easily assumed mastery over the technical aspects of architecture. Although a splendid artist, Anthemius gained most recognition for his design of the Hagia Sophia. An architect, engineer, and scholar, Isidorus was born in Miletus (Turkey) and presumably received his education in Constantinople. He probably worked as an architect-engineer with Anthemius assuming the role of senior partner. Some authorities avoid calling Anthemius and Isidorus architects in the traditional sense of the word, but their innovative work on the Hagia Sophia marks them as more than engineers. Borrowing from Roman Imperial, late antique, and early Christian concepts, they designed and built the major monument of Byzantine architecture. The one who calculated statics for the structure, and particularly for the dome, must have been

A thin pasta-like pie is stuffed with meat (usually lamb or beef) and vegetables (ours had onions and tomatoes), and baked in the oven. It is usually served with a tomato sauce. Person of the Day: Turgut S(h)en During our first couple of days in Istanbul, we were lucky enough to have Turgut S(h)en as a helper, guide, and friend. A long-time resident of Istanbul, Turgut helped us find our way around and proved to be a font of information, not only about the city, but also about cycling in Turkey. He is an enthusiastic advocate of cycling and hopes to promote it as an alternative means of transportation, as a sport, and as another venue for tourism. He has taken a number of long bike trips around Turkey himself and hopes to organize bicycle tours for visitors as well. The BikeAbouters can attest to the wonderful cycling in Turkey. Indeed, they only wish they had time to do more. The country's amazing natural beauty, good road network, and hospitable people make it a perfect destination for (fit) cycle tourists. We would like to thank Turgut for his invaluable help and to applaud his efforts to promote cycling in Turkey.

No. 543: A DATING GAME by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 543. Today, I learn an unexpected lesson from a dating game. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. L et's play a game with history and technology. First, I'll use my computer to generate a random date between 1 AD and 1950 AD. Just a minute. There! The computer gave me 584. So today we'll ask what was going on in the year 584 AD. Boy! Is that ever a lousy date! The Roman empire was coming apart. Christianity was mired in politics. China had been through 400 years of civil war. It would settle down again, but in the next century. The Prophet Mohammed was just 14. His followers would build a great civilization, but not for a while. Right now we hovered between the old world and the new. The center of civilization was the city of Byzantium today's Istanbul, Turkey. Byzantium had built a great wall against the West. It gazed East across the Bosporus. Thus armored, it was becoming a static, closed world. Yet that's the best place to look for inventive energy in 584 AD. The great architect/inventor of that age was Anthemius of Tralles. He had died half a century earlier. His finest work was the cathedral of Hagia Sofia, or Holy Wisdom. He finished it in 527, but an earthquake soon damaged it. The rebuilt cathedral the one standing today was finished in 558.

Vital Statistics: Location: Istanbul, Turkey Completion Date: Diameter: 102 feet Type: Ribbed Purpose: Religious Materials: Concrete Engineer(s): Anthemius of Tralles, Isidorus the Elder Considered the finest example of Byzantine architecture in the world, the church of Hagia Sophia was constructed on a scale unprecedented in human history. Under the rule of Justinian the Emperor, and with a force of 10,000 workers, the dome atop the church of Hagia Sophia was built in record time: it took just five years, ten months, and four days to complete. But when construction began, Anthemius found himself in a geometric fix. How would he build a circular dome atop a square base? Anthemius arrived at a revolutionary solution. He built four massive columns at the corner of each square. On top of the columns, he built four arches. He then filled the spaces between the arches with masonry to create curved triangular shapes called pendentives. The pendentives and the tops of the arches combine to form a strong base for the dome. But it was the dome that made Hagia Sophia the most complex building of antiquity. The shallow dome was made from 40 equally spaced ribs. Forty windows were then set at the dome's base, creating the sensation that the dome actually floated over the church.

Detail of the mosaic in the lunette over the south doorway showing Justinian who presents a model of the church of Hagia Sophia to the Virgin and Child. T he church of Hagia Sophia, associated with one of the greatest creative ages of man, had also been identified with the Ecumenical Patriarchate for more than one thousand years. The church of Hagia Sophia is believed to have been founded by Constantine the Great. The initial building was erected over the ruins of an ancient temple of Apollo, situated on a hill commanding a magnificent view of the Sea of Marmara. The Second Ecumenical Council was convened in Hagia Sophia in 381, during the reign of Theodosius I (378-395). Some twenty years later, on 20 June 404, the people angered by the banishment of John Chrysostom burned down the church . Rebuilt by Theodosius 11 (408-450) and consecrated in 415, the church was again burnt to the ground by the rioting crowds during the Nika Revolt (15 January 532). After the repression of the frightful revolt, Justinian conceived the grandiose project of rebuilding the Great Church from its foundations. This time it was to be built on plans well in advance of the times, using new daring vaulting techniques and statics. The men for the task were available. The mathematician Anthemius of Tralles and the architect Isidorus of Miletus worked with imagination and scientific accuracy to create a new design and build a masterpiece that stands unique throughout the centuries. Nothing like it was ever built before or after.
