Viggen Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Fire damaged a part of ancient Perge site in southern city of Antalya on Sunday. Antalya Governor Alaaddin Yuksel, who visited the site after the fire was put out, said that the fire didn't cause serious damage on the ancient site. Situated 18 km east of Antalya, Perge is in the city limits of Aksu Bucagi. Because of its location on the Cilicia - Pisidia road, it was a vital part of the province of Pamphylia, and was founded around the same time as the other cities in the area (7th century BC). full article at Turkishpress.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
