Etymology
Phrygia comes from the name of an ancient people, the Phrygians, and the Greeks used that name for the area where they lived in the western and central part of modern Turkey. A helpful way to remember it is King Midas, a famous Phrygian ruler, so Phrygia means that old country and its people.
