jan 1, 1194 BC - Migration of Bithyni I

Description:

Phrygians were initially dwelling in the southern Balkans – according to Herodotus – under the name of Bryges (Briges), changing it to Phryges after their final migration to Anatolia, via the Hellespont.

Many historians - such as Herodotus - support a Phrygian migration from Europe to Asia Minor around c. 1200 BC shortly after the Trojan War.
