Description
It is one of the most magnificent ruins of the Hellenistic Period with its tomb, monumental statues and unique view of King Antiochus I, who reigned on the slopes of Nemrut Daßñ on 2150 meters in Kahta District of Adñyaman. Monumental sculptures are spread to the east, west and north terraces. The eastern terrace is the sacred center, and therefore the most important statues and architectural remains are found here. The well-preserved giant sculptures are made of limestone blocks and are 8-10 meters high. Although it is known, the tomb of the king has not been discovered yet.
