#Perga

• Illuminated — Having been decorated with miniatures, ornamental initials, or colored borders; an old manuscript or document embellished through the technique of illumination. In an aesthetic sense, it describes the final state of a medieval text whose parchment pages have been structurally illuminated with gold leaf and vivid pigments by master miniaturists.
• Anopistograph — A manuscript, ancient document, or papyrus that is written, printed, or engraved on one side only, leaving the reverse side completely blank for technical, economic, or ritualistic aesthetic reasons. As an adjective, the term qualifies any material support (parchment, paper, tablet) featuring text or graphic elements exclusively on one side, typical of the earliest stages in the development of book volumes and structures in antiquity.
• Anopistographic — Belonging to an anopistograph, relating to the technique of writing or printing on a single side of the material support; structurally characterized by leaving the reverse side free of any graphic marks. In bibliology, it describes a technical feature of early European prints or monumental epigraphic texts where using the second side would compromise readability or textual integrity.
• Apollonios — The name of several scholars, scientists, and writers from Ancient Greece and the Hellenistic period, the most famous being Apollonius of Perga (3rd century BC), a geometric genius who revolutionized the study of conic sections, Apollonius of Rhodes, an epic poet author of the 'Argonautica', and Apollonius of Tyana, a Neopythagorean philosopher. These figures represent structural pillars of scientific and literary evolution in the classical Mediterranean basin.
• Apollonius — A linguistic variant adapted into the Romanian language for the historical Greek name Apollonios or the Latin Apollonius, used to denote the great scholars of the Hellenistic era; most frequently refers to Apollonius of Perga, the mathematician who laid the foundations for the study of conics, or the Stoic philosopher Apollonius of Chalcedon. This scholarly onomastic form is predominantly used in academic works on the history of science and philology.
• Aristonicus — An ancient proper name borne by Hellenic figures, most famously Aristonicus of Pergamum (also known by his royal name Eumenes III), a pretender to the Pergamene throne who led a major popular revolt against the Roman Republic between 133 and 129 BC, proclaiming the creation of an ideal state of equality called the 'City of the Sun' (Heliopolis) where slaves and the poor were freed.
• Attalos — The name borne by several famous kings of the Attalid dynasty who ruled the Hellenistic kingdom of Pergamon in Asia_Minor, the most renowned being Attalos II (founder of Antalya) and Attalos III, who bequeathed his kingdom to the Roman Republic. In archaeology, the name is closely linked to the Stoa of Attalos, a monumental structure reconstructed in the Agora of Athens.
