Alright fine it's a decent start for founding a religion thanks to Uluru, I was confusing my negative emotions, derailing the thread sorry.
It's just a horrible start in general - hardly any luxes, second city will basically be trash aside from Uluru - but doesn't really have anything to do with Byzantium aside from the lost pantheon choice. I really really strongly dislike swaths of duplicate plantation resources, have had some recent painful games with them.
Yes I must admit that is a little peculiar, I don't think I've ever seen 8 copies of a duplicate luxury before. But to your advantage you will have lots of spare copies you can either sell/trade to the AI or gift where you want to improve relations.
The Uluru site isn't too bad, you have a couple of choices there. Either pick liberty and settle close to uluru asap so you can work the tile immediately. You will get food for this so the city will grow as you get faith.
Alternatively pick tradition and hard build a settler (by chopping forests) and move it next to the river tile to the North of Uluru. Start of working the salt and use the tile expansion bonus from Tradition to get to Uluru as soon as you can. You might need to buy 1 or 2 tiles to get to it. I would also explore around that area a bit more, as there might be other resources still hidden.
Hard-building settlers with tradition will slow you down a little, but I reckon the growth and culture bonuses and free monuments/aqueducts and chopping forests will make up for that very quickly.
But either way you should be able to get both salt and Uluru from one city so thats reasonable. That site also has a heap of forest so use that to your advantage. That's enough forest for you to probably chop for all your early buildings or even a wonder.
To your West you actually have an excellent city tile. I see marble, 2 rivers, a mountain, wheat and sheep. Settle adjacent to the mountain and river and that's a great spot for a food/production/science megacity.
