Gela was a town on the southern coast of Sicily. The city was founded around 688 BC by colonists from Rhodes and Crete 45 years after the founding of Syracuse. The city was named after the river Gela. The Greeks had many colonies in the south of what is now Italy, and for many centuries the Greeks had a major influence on the area. Gela flourished and, after only a century, a group of Geloi founded the colony of Agrigento. The expansion, however, led to economic and social strains, which led the plebs to leave the city and settle in nearby Maktorion. However, the revolt was opposed by the great priest of Diana and the exiled plebs returned to Gela. In 405 BC, the city was sacked by Carthage. It was abandoned in 282 BC.
