Philadelphia, known in modern times as the Turkish town of Alaşehir, was established by King Eumenes II of Pergamon, in honor of his brother, Attalus II, who was loyal to him and would be his successor. Located along a trade route southeast of Sardis, the city stood in a valley at the base of Mount Tmolus.
