The Döşeme Boğazı (‘Pass with the Pavement’) is one of the ancient routes through the Taurus Mountains that connected the Anatolian interior with the southern coastal regions (fig. 1). From an early date it was an important component of the Roman road-system in Asia Minor (fig. 2). The pass lay near the S end of the Republican route from the Dardanelles to Side which was created by Manius Aquillius, first proconsul of Asia between 129 and 126 B.C. The S part of this road was incorporated into the via Sebaste, built in 6/5 B.C., which linked several of the Roman colonies founded by Augustus in south-central Anatolia to the Mediterranean coast. By good fortune, the ancient settlements and the Roman and post-Roman road in this defile have survived largely untouched by modern development. The course of the road between the Roman colony of Comama (Pisidia) and Perge (Pamphylia), as well as branch roads leading to other settlements, can be traced precisely. Well-preserved remains of two settlements, both occupied between the 2nd and 6th c., are identifiable at the upper and lower ends of the defile: in them are houses having from 2 to 10 rooms, the larger ones arranged around courtyards and some having cisterns and towers (Turmgehöfte), a bath-house and public cisterns, roadside shops, sarcophagi and small heroa in prominent positions by the road, and numerous churches. The lower site includes a large walled structure probably of the 6th c., that was almost certainly designed as an animal enclosure to control transhumant flocks. Most remarkable of all the surviving structures in the pass, however, are the remains of a mansio or way-station, which survives up to roof level and is the best-preserved building of this type in the entire empire.

Pisidia 的 Döşeme Boğazı 的豪宅：小亚细亚罗马的独特建筑

Döşeme Boğazı（“人行道通行证”）是穿越金牛座山脉的古老路线之一，将安纳托利亚内陆与南部沿海地区连接起来（图 1）。从早期开始，它就是小亚细亚罗马道路系统的重要组成部分（图 2）。通行证位于从达达尼尔海峡到锡德的共和路线的 S 端附近，该路线由第一任总督马尼乌斯·阿奎利乌斯 (Manius Aquillius) 创建。亚洲公元前 129 至 126 年间，这条道路的 S 部分被纳入通过塞巴斯特，建于公元前 6/5 年，将奥古斯都在安纳托利亚中南部建立的几个罗马殖民地与地中海沿岸相连。幸运的是，这片土地上的古代定居点以及罗马和后罗马道路在很大程度上没有受到现代发展的影响而幸存下来。可以精确追踪罗马殖民地科马马 (Pisidia) 和佩尔格 (Pamphylia) 之间的道路，以及通往其他定居点的支路。保存完好的两个定居点遗迹，都位于公元 2 世纪和 6 世纪之间，在污点的上端和下端都可以辨认出来：其中有 2 到 10 个房间的房屋，较大的房屋围绕着庭院布置，有些则有蓄水池和水塔（特姆格霍夫特)、浴室和公共蓄水池、路边商店、石棺和小型英雄在路边显眼的位置，还有众多的教堂。较低的地点包括一个可能是公元 6 世纪的大型围墙结构，几乎可以肯定，它被设计为一个动物围栏，以控制转群动物群。然而，在通道中所有幸存的结构中，最引人注目的是曼西奥或中途站，它一直存在到屋顶，是整个帝国中保存最完好的此类建筑。
