About Adramyttium
An ancient port city in Asia Minor. When travelling to Rome as a prisoner, Paul sailed on a ship from Adramyttium (Acts 27:2). Adramyttium is the modern-day Turkish city of Edremit. Coins found in the area indicate that Adramyttium may have been a center for the worship of Castor and Pollux (twin sons of the pagan god, Zeus).
