Postcards from Susa

Susa, also known as Soussa, is a coastal city and popular resort in the Jabal al-Akhdar district of northeastern Libya. The city is located near the ruins of ancient Apollonia, which once served as the port city of the mighty Cyrene – one of the most important cities of the ancient Greek empire in North Africa.

Apollonia was founded in the 7th century BC by Greek colonists from Thera (modern Santorini) and grew into an important trading and maritime centre. During the Hellenistic and later Roman periods the city reached its peak, with impressive buildings such as temples, bathhouses and a theatre partly carved into the rocks by the sea. The remains of these can still be admired today.

After the Arab conquests in the 7th century, Apollonia slowly fell into decline, and the area lost its strategic importance. The modern city of Susa emerged much later, but it still bears echoes of its former glory. Today, Susa is home to the Apollonia Museum, which displays a rich collection of artefacts from classical antiquity, including statues, mosaics and inscriptions.

Susa is located about 30 kilometers northeast of Bayda and attracts visitors interested in both its natural beauty and its historical significance.

Susa, ook wel bekend als Soussa, is een kuststad en geliefde badplaats in het district Jabal al-Akhdar, in het noordoosten van Libië. De stad ligt vlak bij de ruïnes van het antieke Apollonia, dat ooit fungeerde als de havenstad van het machtige Cyrene – een van de belangrijkste steden van het oude Griekse rijk in Noord-Afrika.

Apollonia werd gesticht in de 7e eeuw v.Chr. door Griekse kolonisten uit Thera (het huidige Santorini) en groeide uit tot een belangrijk handels- en maritiem centrum. Tijdens de Hellenistische en later de Romeinse periode kende de stad haar hoogtepunt, met indrukwekkende bouwwerken zoals tempels, badhuizen en een theater dat deels in de rotsen aan zee is uitgehouwen. De resten hiervan zijn nog steeds te bewonderen.

Na de Arabische veroveringen in de 7e eeuw raakte Apollonia langzaam in verval, en het gebied verloor zijn strategische belang. De moderne stad Susa ontstond pas veel later, maar draagt nog altijd de echo van haar oude glorie met zich mee. Tegenwoordig herbergt Susa het Apollonia Museum, dat een rijke collectie aan artefacten toont uit de klassieke oudheid, waaronder beelden, mozaïeken en inscripties.

Susa ligt op ongeveer 30 kilometer ten noordoosten van Bayda en trekt bezoekers aan die geïnteresseerd zijn in zowel haar natuurlijke schoonheid als haar historische betekenis.
