Hello photography lovers.Today I will take you on a historical tour.I am here with the history of Ermenek district in Turkey.I will show you houses made of stone and tombs made of stone.The city of Ermenek has hosted many civilizations throughout history.With the excavations carried out here, the stones that I will present the visual of have emerged.This city, which is estimated to have a history of five thousand years, may become an important tourism center.As a result of the excavations and researches, there is a historical adventure in this city that started with the Hittites.In addition to the Hittites, it was concluded that Akkadians, Babylonians, Persian Empire, Romans and Byzantines lived.Among the conclusions that can be drawn from the images I will share is the belief in resurrection as a belief.The factor that enabled me to reach this conclusion is the rumor that there are precious metals such as gold in the places where these tombs are found.Also, as far as I can see, the tombs are large and well built.
The first image and the second image are very striking because of the markings on them.
The conclusion I draw from these signs is that the people who live or are buried here are important figures.It is already trying King Tombs as a name. I think these people were the rulers of those times.The graves of these people seem wider. In other words, there was more gold in the tombs of these kings. It was planned that the king would lead a rich life when they were resurrected.
In the third image, I will show you a house located here. One room of this house is completely carved out of stone. Presumably, the people of that period lived in these stone rooms.Rooms are generally low. It can also be a meeting room. It was made by carving the rock. My question is, how many years did they build this place? It should not be easy to shape these stones with the technology of that time.
In the fourth picture, it is a living place made by carving the stone. This living place is in a more unfavorable position than the other. My guess is that he is a slave or lower class person living here.
I think the holes in this image are the sections where they put items or supplies. We come across crazy people in the form of small and large boxes.
These holes, which are in the form of round and square, are where they put things.
I guess it is the entrance door of a house
It is presumed to be the tomb of one of the king's children.
Another example of tombs made of stone.
