Antioch was a city on Earth to which the First Doctor and Susan once travelled prior to meeting Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright. They visited the city around the time of Jesus Christ, and the Doctor found it a "brutal and murderous place". He went on to call it "terrible", replete with "slavery, crime in the streets, everybody stabbing everyone else in the back". He held the same views of Rome and Jerusalem, other ancient Earth cities the two Gallifreyans visited together. (PDA: Byzantium!)
