We investigate two-dimensional, periodic ornaments of the Late Hellenistic (some centuries before the Common Era, the Classical Period) and Early Roman (Common Era) classical periods found at different locations in Asia Minor in Turkey and classify them into mathematical wallpaper groups based on their symmetry properties. The source material comes from Terrace Houses in Ephesus, Izmir, from Zeugma, now in the Zeugma Museum, Gaziantep, and from the recently released bathing pool in Antiochia ad Cragum near Gazipa\c{s}a, Antalya. Using the artifacts we first determine the occurrence of each symmetry group. Then we compare this distribution with those of the medieval cultures of the Middle East, namely the Armenian, Byzantine, Arab and Seljuk Turks, calculating in pairs the Euclidean distances of the wallpaper distributions. The subsequent multi-dimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis of the results confirm that the Armenian and Byzantine artworks are strongly inspired by the classical masterpieces, as is the Seljuk creation by the Arabs.
