'''Thyatira''' (Greek: "odour of affliction", or "dominating female") was the fourth city mentioned in the Book of Revelation to receive a message from Jesus Christ. Thyatira was located in Asia Minor, on the borders of Lydia and Mysia, and is now the city of Akhisar (meaning "white castle") in the Province of Manisa, Turkey. It is located 67 km/42 miles inland from the Aegean Sea and is known today for its olive, olive oil, and tobacco production. | '''Thyatira''' (Greek: "odour of affliction", or "dominating female") was the fourth city mentioned in the Book of Revelation to receive a message from Jesus Christ.
