Description
HASANKEYF, Eastern Turkey-the history of Hasankeyf goes back 10,000 years. This is over two times longer than the Giza pyramids and Stonehenge, and makes the glorious civilizations of the Maya and Inca seem as if they were flourishing just yesterday. Hasankeyf is one of the oldest places in the world. But this ten millennium run will soon meet its ending point: the city will soon be flooded by the Ilisu Dam.
In the foreground the old bridge - built in 1116 by Sultan Fahrettin Karaaslan Artuqid. Bridge on the River Tigris is considered the greatest of the medieval period. Support for the bridge built of wood in the case of the bridge had to be removed in order to prevent the attack. For this reason, two piles and some of the works that are the foundation of the bridge there today.
