Rodos, the island of Colossus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, is the largest of the Dodecanese islands of Greece and is their historical capital, northeast of Crete, southeast of Athens. Rhodes is also known as "Island of the Sun" due to its patron sun god Helios, "The Pearl Island", and "The Island of the Knights", named after the Knights of Saint John of Jerusalem, who ruled the island from 1310 to 1522, Other ancient names were Ρόδη (Rodē), Τελχινίς (Telchinis) and Ηλιάς (Helias). The Medieval Old Town of the City of Rhodes is a World Heritage Site, and one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe, inhabited in the Neolithic period.
During the 16th century BC, the Minoans came to Rhodes also named Telchinis. In Greek mythology a Rhodian race called the Telchines associated with Danaus. In the 15th century BCE, Mycenaean Greeks invaded. After the Bronze Age collapse, in Pindar's ode, the island was said to be born of the union of Helios the sun god and the nymph Rhodos, and the cities were named for their three sons. The Rhoda is a pink hibiscus, native to the island. Diodorus Siculus added that Actis, one of the sons of Helios and Rhode, travelled to Egypt, built Heliopolis and taught the Egyptians astrology. The Rhodian cities joined the Athenian League, later became a part of the growing empire of Alexander the Great in 332 BC, developed into a maritime, commercial and cultural center; its coins circulated allover the Mediterranean. Its famous schools of philosophy, science, literature and rhetoric shared masters with Alexandria: the Athenian rhetorician Aeschines, who formed a school at Rhodes; Apollonius of Rhodes, who wrote about Jason and Medea in the Argonautica; the observations and works of the astronomers Hipparchus and Geminus; and the rhetorician Dionysius Thrax. Its school of sculptors developed, under Pergamese influence, a rich, dramatic style that can be characterized as "Hellenistic Baroque". In 305 BC, Antigonus directed his son, Demetrius, to besiege Rhodes in an attempt to break its alliance with Egypt. Demetrius created huge siege engines, including a 180 ft (55 m) battering ram and a siege tower called Helepolis that weighed 360,000 lb (163,293 kg), but 1 year later, relented and signed a peace agreement, leaving behind a huge military equipment, sold by the Rhodians to erect a statue of their sun god, Helios, the Colossus of Rhodes, celebrating a grand festival, the Halieia. Rhodes became a cultural and educational center for Roman noble families in rhetoric, as Hermagoras and the author of Rhetorica ad Herennium. Cassius invaded the island and sacked the city. In the early Imperial period Rhodes became a favorite place for political exiles, eg AD, the Emperor Tiberius spent a brief term of exile on Rhodes. In ancient times there was a Roman saying: "Hic Rhodus, hic salta!"—"Here is Rhodes, jump here!" (as translated from Ancient Greek "Αὐτοῦ γὰρ καὶ Ῥόδος καὶ πήδημα"), an admonition to prove one's idle boasts by deed, rather than boastful talk, cited by Hegel, Marx, and Kierkegaard. Beginning from ca. 600 AD, its influence in maritime issues was manifested in the collection of maritime laws known as "Rhodian Sea Law" (Nomos Rhodion Nautikos), accepted throughout the Mediterranean and in use throughout Byzantine times (and influencing the development of admiralty law up to the present). In c. 1090, was occupied by the Seljuk Turks, after the long period of chaos from the Battle of Manzikert, recaptured by the Emperor Alexios I Komnenos during the First Crusade, became independent under Leo Gabalas and his brother John, occupied by the Genoese in 1248–1250, then the Empire of Nicaea 1306–1310, the Byzantine era then occupied by the Knights Hospitaller. Under the rule of the newly named "Knights of Rhodes", the city was rebuilt into a model of the European medieval ideal. Many of the city's famous monuments, including the Palace of the Grand Master, were built during this period. Palace of the Grand Master in the city of Rhodes: The strong walls which the knights had built withstood the attacks of the Sultan of Egypt in 1444, and a siege by the Ottomans under Mehmed II in 1480. Eventually, however, Rhodes fell to the large army of Suleiman the Magnificent in December 1522. The Sultan deployed 400 ships delivering 100,000 men to the island (200,000 in other sources). Against this force the Knights, under Grand Master Philippe Villiers de L'Isle-Adam, had about 7,000 men-at-arms and their fortifications. The siege lasted six months, at the end of which the surviving defeated Hospitallers were allowed to withdraw to the Kingdom of Sicily. Despite the defeat, both Christians and Muslims seem to have regarded the conduct of Villiers de L'Isle-Adam as extremely valiant, and the Grand Master was proclaimed a Defender of the Faith by Pope Adrian VI (see Knights of Cyprus and Rhodes). The knights would later move their base of operations to Malta. Rhodes was thereafter a possession of the Ottoman Empire (see Sanjak of Rhodes) for nearly four centuries. In 1912, Italy seized Rhodes from the Ottomans during the Italo-Turkish War. The island's population was spared the "exchange of the minorities" between Greece and Turkey. Rhodes and the rest of the Dodecanese Islands were assigned to Italy in the Treaty of Ouchy. Thousands of Italian colonists settled in the island, mainly in the capital "Rodi", while some of them founded farm villages. While the government worked at modernization, they also obliterated many historical buildings that did not match their ideal of a modern society. In 1949, Rhodes was the venue for negotiations between Israel and Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria, concluding with the 1949 Armistice Agreements.
