Kalchedon originated as a Megarian colony in 685 BC. The town flourished and built many temples, including one to Apollo, which had an oracle. Today the site of Kalchedon is a district of the city of Istanbul named Kadıköy. Except for a tower, almost no above-ground vestiges of the ancient city survived.
