Harbor of Theodosius
The Harbor of Theodosius was one of the ports of ancient Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire. The harbor was located on the south side of the peninsula where the city is built, facing towards the Sea of Marmara.
History
In 1511, rioters, led by Ezio Auditore da Firenze, infiltrated the harbor and broke through the gates after becoming fed up with the Janissaries. The rioters engaged in a small skirmish with the Janissaries, while Ezio pursued a member of the Templar Order, Manuel Palaiologos.
Ezio tailed Manuel and his fellow Templar Shahkulu to a small area where they were storing weapons. After observing a brief meeting between Shahkulu, Manuel and Tarik Barleti, Ezio fled the harbor in an attempt to alert his fellow Assassins. Upon arriving back at the Arsenal gates, Ezio found the rioters slaughtered, and left the harbor.
