High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Chalcedon ( /k?l?si?d?n/ or /?k?ls?d?n/;Greek: ????????, sometimes transliterated as Chalkedon) was an ancient maritime town of Bithynia, in Asia Minor, almost directly opposite Byzantium, south of Scutari (modern Uskudar). It is now a district of the city of Istanbul named Kad?koy. The name is a variant of Calchedon (Greek: ????????), found on all the coins of Chalcedon as well as in manuscripts of Herodotus's Histories, Xenophon's Hellenica, Arrian's Anabasis, and other works. Almost no aboveground vestiges of the ancient city survive in Kad?koy today; artifacts uncovered at Alt?yol and other excavation sites are on display at the Istanbul Archaeological Museum.
