Byzantium

Byzantium ( ; (ギリシア語:Βυζάντιον) ''Byzántion'') was an ancient Greek colony on the site that later became Constantinople, and later still Istanbul. Byzantium was colonised by Greek colonists from Megara in 657 BC.
==Name==
The etymology of ''Byzantion'' is unknown. It has been suggested that the name is of Thraco-Illyrian origin, It may be derived from a Thracian or Illyrian personal name, ''Byzas''. Ancient Greek legend refers to a legendary king Byzas, the leader of the Megarean colonists and founder of the city.
The form ''Byzantium'' is a Latinization of the original name. Much later, the name ''Byzantium'' became common in the West to refer to the Eastern Roman Empire, the ''"Byzantine" Empire'', whose capital Constantinople stood on the site of ancient Byzantium. This usage was introduced only in 1555 by the German historian Hieronymus Wolf, a century after the empire had ceased to exist. During the time of the empire, the term Byzantium was restricted to just the city, rather than the empire that it ruled.
