The name Amasya comes from Amasis, an Amazon queen who lived here. As seen in the Greek and Roman coins found, the name changed over time to Αμάσεια, Amaseia, Amassia and Amasia, and eventually the Turks called it Amasya. It is said that Amasya has been under the sovereignty of 19 different states so far. Although the exact founding date of the city of Amasya is not known, it is estimated that the settlement dates back to the Hittite period.
