First besieged in 305 BC, the island of Rhodes became part of the Roman Empire and was later fortified in the Byzantine style. Due to its position in the Mediterranean, Rhodes was attacked and besieged for over a century by Islamic forces. This title details the development of the fortifications, as well as the sieges that sought to reduce them.
