Into Turkey– Part Twenty-Seven

Into Turkey– Part Twenty-Seven

Most of what there is to see in the museum under the hotel itself involves the villas and their mosaics, which are still in situ, in the place where they were found but this is not entirely so.  So pottery and other objects were found and are displayed like at a normal museum… for instance…

 

But the real focus is not what you find in the few glass cases but what you see when you walk on the elevated walkways above the dig, and below the hotel….

Notice how wavy this floor is from the earthquake damage.

But there is much more to see at the main new Antioch museum, which I assure you is not below a hotel, and is above ground.
