The city has been identified with modern Zengibar Kalesi, Bozkır, Konya Province. In antiquity the city was in Isauria (Ἰσαυρία) district of Lycaonia in today's southern Turkey (modern Konya Province). Its site is identified as near Bozkır. History Before the Romans the town was a strongly fortified city of the Isaurians, located at the foot of Mt. Taurus. It was besieged by Perdiccas, the Macedonian regent after Alexander the Great's death, the Isaurians set the place alight and let it perish in flames rather than submit to capture. Large quantities of molten gold were found afterwards by the Macedonians among the ashes and ruins. The town was rebuilt, but was destroyed a second time by the Roman, Servilius Isauricus (), and thenceforth it remained a heap of ruins. Strabo states that the place was ceded ...

Sor Isaura Marcos Sánchez ( Los Santos, Salamanca, 13 January 1959) is a cloistered nun of the Poor Clares order at the Monastery of Pedralbes whose photographs are based on a peculiar reflection technique that avoids the use of digital retouching programs. The whole reality of the monastery is what shapes the subject matter of her works, which are dedicated exclusively to charitable purposes. Biography Isaura was the youngest of the six children of Benedicto Marcos Curto and Isaura Sánchez Gómez. As a teenager, she was attracted to monastic life. When in Barcelona, where one of her brothers lived, she decided to visit different ecclesiastical communities. She was deeply impressed by the Franciscan charism of the Poor Clare Sisters of the Monastery of Santa Maria de Pedralbes, founded in 1326 by Queen Elisenda of Montcada, and therefore decided to enter the order in 1976, when she was seventeen years old. In 2009, she was initiated into the field of photography in a self-taugh ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
