Summary/Abstract: The ancient city of Akmonia is located in a high hilly area in the village of Ahat in the Banaz District of Uşak Province. Located in the center of Phrygia, the city dominates the plain of the large fertile Doiantos Pedion (Banaz Plain), which is irrigated by Kuruçay, one of the branches of Sindros. Acmonia is located in a central position from Sadeis to the east and from the south to the north. This position has led to the direction of trade on the Aegean coast and the Central Western Anatolia and as we have understood from the inscriptions, it has become a rich and prosperous city in this context.
