A row of columns form part of the Roman gymnasium in the ancient ruined city of Salamis, North Cyprus. Evidence indicates a settlement on the site as long ago as 11th century BC. The city was a major port, and was extended and developed by the Assyrians, Greeks, Romans and Byzantines until its destruction & eventual disuse after an earthquake in 4th century AD.

CW: WW2 History
German #uboat U-133 did not survive her success for even two months. On 13 March 1942, when leaving her new patrol base of #Salamis in occupied #greece, she struck a German mine and was lost with all hands. She can now be dived just off the coast. Her commander had just transferred to a shore-based position on 1 March 1943. He would be killed along with the crew of his new boat U-194 on 24 June 1943, when she was sunk by depth-charges and a torpedo. https://www.wreckhistory.com/u-133/?lang=en
