迦克墩

Also known as Kadıköy

Chalcedon (; ) was an ancient maritime town of Bithynia, in Asia Minor. It was located almost directly opposite Byzantium, south of Scutari (modern Üsküdar) and it is now a district of the city of Istanbul named Kadıköy. The name Chalcedon is a variant of Calchedon, found on all the coins of the town as well as in manuscripts of Herodotus's Histories, Xenophon's Hellenica, Arrian's Anabasis, and other works. Except for the Maiden's Tower, almost no above-ground vestiges of the ancient city survive in Kadıköy today; artifacts uncovered at Altıyol and other excavation sites are on display at the

迦克墩（希臘語：Χαλκηδών，Chalkidon）或卡尔西登（英語：Chalcedon，發音： /kælˈsiːdən/或/ˈkælsɪdɒn/）是一座位于小亚细亚比提尼亚的古代城市，几乎正对拜占庭。现今它是伊斯坦布尔卡德柯伊的一个街区。在卡德柯伊几乎没有留下任何古城的遗迹，而发掘的文物均保存于伊斯坦布尔考古博物馆。公元451年，迦克墩公会议在此召开。迦克墩的遗址坐落于马尔马拉海北岸的一个半岛上，靠近博斯普鲁斯海峡的海口。该城的希腊语名字来源于腓尼基语，意为“新城”，与迦太基相似。
