Antalya
История Анталии простирается к эпохе каменного века. Доказательством этому служат находки времен палеолита, сделанные в пещере Караин, расположенной в окрестностях деревни Ягджа. Во время раскопок в районе Караташ Семахоюк было обнаружено множество находок принадлежащих бронзовому веку. Историки выдвигают гипотезу, что Памфилия, упомянутая в хеттских клинописных записях как город страны Ахиява или Арзова, является прежним названием Анталии. Однако за исключением Сиде, где было обнаружено несколько находок, других доказательств найдено не было. В... |
