Overview of your Sanliurfa tour
The region that lies between the Taurus Mountains and the Euphrates was called Commagene during the Greek and Roman periods. Commagene was established originally as an independent kingdom in 162 BC by Mithridates Kalinikos. I. Mithridates brought together Persians and Macedonians and other communities in the area to form this powerful state and named it Commagene, which means "community of genes" in Greek. The kingdom was at the height of its splendor during the period of King Antiochus I (69-36 B. C. ), who succeeded Mithridates. Most of the archeological remains which survive to our times, including the tumulus at the peak of Nemrut Dag, which still refuses to reveal all its secrets, are from the time of Antiochus I. At the cone shape summit of this 2, 200m elevated mountain one can find statues mythical figures of Apollon, Zeus, Hercules, and others. You will feel you are special between many Gods when we arrive to the summit of the mountain. . .
