History

For today’s #AncientSiteSunday let’s go to south-east #Turkey, to the site of Nemrut Dağ (Mount Nemrut), a tomb-sanctuary and monument build by a local dynast called Antiochus I. It was built in the 1st century BC and is spectacularly located on a 2,150m high peak. #Archaeology pic.twitter.com/zU4csse9Vp
