Home / Turkey 2

Size mattered in ancient Turkey. Northeast of Antioch, there are places where human hands seemingly shaped the entire landscape, including mountains. As a result, the area is a showcase for spectacular snakehead burials and large religious sites. I will add more pictures soon.

The largest geoglyph ever discovered.

5 photos

I discovered a 40 X 41 Kilometer geoglyph of a Knight on horse-back. In the images you can see the intricate detail of the armor horse tack and barding. The shield is just above the horse and a little left of center. I believe the shape of the shield (round top tapering to a rounded point at the bottom) dates it to around 14th - 15th century.
Turkey, Mount Ararat

1 photo

I believe Mount Ararat has an abundance of physical proof a great flood happened. On top and around the mountain, I found evidence of the remains of many ships. They are not so difficult to find. First, you must let go of the common perception of a shipwreck that most imagine. Think logically. There was a Huge flood where all the land has been destroyed and underwater. In the region of Mount Ararat, the first land seen is an island near the mountain's top. Any remaining people would head straight for it. Not just one ship but many, so many the mountain is embraced in the survivors' ships and boats' remains. Please remember to look for ancient ships having been broken and piled on top of each other. You find them eroding out of the dirt and mud and melting out of the ice. Rarely seen is a ship's full profile, just some on the top layer of debris.
Turkish Wonders

This picture shows an area of fossilized shipwrecks located in Turkey's mountains, about 45 kilometers from the sea. There are many sections of broken ships and boats eroding out of the landscape. What better archaeological evidence of a great flood than the fossilized remains of the vessels!
