History of Tisan Island
The Cilician Aphrodisias, ancient city Pityussa, is located near the Tisan region.The ancient island city has established close trade relations with Cyprus, Egypt, Aphrodisias, Komardias, Holmi and Seleukeia.
In time, the stones in the ruins were removed by the people of the region to be building materials. For this reason, there is not much structure left today. The ancient mosaics in the Tisan region contain a church whose floor mosaics are still selectable as a residential area dedicated to Aphrodite. It dates back to the 7th century BC.
