guy Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) An interesting find in the western province of Aydin, Turkey: Quote “The fragments of the marble statue of Roman Emperor Hadrianus, which is believed to have been brought to Aydın in 120, have been found in different spots during the ongoing excavations in the parliament building.” "The statue, which we found in six pieces, will be one of the most important works in the museum." “The statue, thought to be 2.5 metres tall when intact, will be put on display at the Aydin Archeology Museum after work on it is complete, the news agency reported.” Nice video in first link: https://m.yenisafak.com/en/video-gallery/news/archaeologists-unearth-statue-of-roman-emperor-hadrian-in-ancient-city-in-turkey-3580050 https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.hurriyetdailynews.com/amp/roman-emperors-statue-discovered-in-aydin-167808 https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/turkey-roman-emperor-hadrian-head-statue-aydin Edited February 2 by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
