Asia minor is current Turkey. SO check out Turkish cuisine. I'm sure it'd include a lot of lamb and beef, especially kebabs and shewarma. |

The Romans became involved in Asia Minor to protect her provinces in the Balkans. The Hellenistic monarchs such as Antiochus of Syria had invaded unsuccessfully the Greek peninsula to drive the Romans out. Technically speaking the Romans did not invade Asia Minor, the kingdom of Pergamum was left to them in the last king's will. |
