The Trajan Fountain663 viewsDedicated to the Roman emperor of the same name, the fountain was built on the north side of Curetes Street in the second century AD. A huge statue of the emperor stood over the pool, but only its feet have survived.

Nazar Boncugu663 viewsJim Windlinger demonstrates one possible use of the Turkish anti-evil-eye amulet, the Nazar Boncugu. Note on pronunciation: the "c" in "boncugu" is pronounced like an English "j", and the g is silent, so pronounce it as if it were spelled "nazar bonju".

Column, View near Base663 viewsIt took three shots to capture this column in adequate detail. This is the section nearest the base. I don't know the identity of the figure depicted here; my guess is that it's a public official performing a sacrifice to Artemis.

Eclipse Projections663 viewsSomeone laid out a sheet on the pavement, with the aim of projecting onto it a sharp and well-defined image of the shadow of the Moon crossing the Sun.

Defterhane - Records Room663 viewsArchives of the Council were kept here.

Minbar663 viewsThe pulpit from which the Imam delivered sermons on Fridays. Obviously not part of the original cathedral, the minbar was added during the reign of Murad III (1574–1595).

What would you call this piece?663 viewsThere was nothing to indicate what the vessel suspended from the elephant tusk was intended to contain. Very imaginative, and very much unacceptable if it were made today, but in the nineteenth century nobody worried about elephants becoming extinct.

The Hierapolis Necropolis662 viewsTombs of rich people. Potter's field this ain't.

End of the Aqueduct662 viewsThe aqueduct terminates in another water tower at the Aspendos Acropolis.

Baths and Propylaeum662 viewsThe Propylaeum was a wrestling school or gymnasium. See the description on the placard in the next picture.

Firuz Ağa Mosque662 viewsBuilt around 1491 by Firuz Ağa, chief treasurer of Sultan Bayezid II. Located very close to Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and Topkapi Palace.

Ambassadors' Hall662 viewsFramed by two Ming vases, this door opens into the Ambassadors' Hall, where the Sultan received envoys of other nations, including Russia, whose Tsar Nicholas I donated two bearskin rugs for the room.
