The Kingdoms of Pergamum and Bithynia were bequeathed to Rome, and Pontus and
Cappadocia were conquered. Cilicia also fell under Roman domination. A Roman
administrative reorganization took place in Anatolia which brought the Roman
culture to Anatolia. At this point according to Naim Turfan Anatolia "hellenized"
Rome while Rome colonized her, for she possessed a creative and well-developed
culture, the roots of which stretched back thousands of years.
