Tarsus, Roman Temple
Roman Temple
V. Longlois, a traveler during the Middle Ages, identified this structure as the tomb of Sardanapalus, an Assyrian who was killed during the siege of Nineveh ca. 612 BC. Located in Tekke, east of the medieval wall in Tarsus, this is actually a Roman temple dating to the second century A.D.
