Mount Nemrut at 2134 metres high, is breathtakingly beautiful. The statues on the summer are believed to be the temple tomb and house of the gods built by king Antiochus 1 of Commagene as a monument to himself.

What is The Matter of Mount Nemrut?

Nemrut where is a volcanic mountain added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1987 as both a natural monument and human-shaped historical monument. Also, this mountain is a part of the Taurus Mountains belt and one of the most dangerous volcanic mountains may be active in future in Turkey. Its height is about 2150 meters and has stunning natural views through the region. Kingdom of Commagene ruled over this region around 1st century BC. They built one of the most magnificent ancient relics here, huge stone sculptures which keep their secret even today. You may watch an old video from the TRT (Turkish Radio and Television) to see Mount Nemrut footage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHO2_dqMhgk You can find the trails of the Kingdom of Commagene at the high peaks of Mount Nemrut. The Kingdom of Commagene was founded between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. This unique kingdom lived under the command of the Assyrians and then Alexander the Great. Around the 2nd century BC, The Kingdom of Commagene gain its independence and kept its existence until the 1st AD. I should write a separate post just for the discover the Kingdom of Commagene but in this post, we will only focus on the Mount Nemrut and its magnificent stone statues. The huge stone heads, sculptures of Mount Nemrut attack thousands of people every year from both within Turkey and all around the world. These statues were placed by the famous king of the Kingdom of Commagene, Antiochus I Theos Dikaios Epiphanes Philorhomaios Philhellen (I. Antiokhos Theos), a very long name :)

Scale Model of the Gods at the Top of Nemrut Mountain at Miniaturk in Istanbul (Source). Discovery of The Statues The statues of the Nemrut discovered in 1881 during a road construction between Adıyaman and Diyarbakır. A German engineer, Karl Sester mentioned this place at first. After the punctuation of the Sester, German Royal Academy sent a team lead by the Otto Punchtein. Later then, Otto Punchtein translates a Greek written inscription and discovered that the region was under the reign of the Kingdom of Commagene. They also discovered the statues were built the King Antiochus I. The 2nd wave of the research and archaeological excavations held between 1953 to 1980 by the researchers from United States of America (Theresa Goell and Friedrich Karl Dörner), Turkey (Osman Hamdi) and Germany (Karl Humann). A significant part of the sculptures and inscriptions are waiting at the Mount Nemrut for its visitors. Also, you may see some of the relics from the region at the different museum around Turkey.

Where is and How to Go to The Mount Nemrut?

Nemrut is very close to the Kayadibi village of Kahta, Adıyaman. Adıyaman is the biggest major city in the region with Malatya. But if you are looking for a place to stay for a couple of days Adıyaman is the best choice because of its location and accessibility from the other parts of Trueyk. Nemrut is around 90 km away from the Adıyaman city centre. If you want to visit the Nemrut, you should go to Adıyaman first. There are a couple of flights from the major cities of Turkey to the Adıyaman. You can check the flights of Turkish Airlines, AnadoluJet and Pegasus Airlines. My suggestion for visiting the Nemrut is renting a car from the airport. Otherwise, you need to take public transport from Adıyaman to Kahta. And then, from Kahta you have to find a person who will take to the Nemrut and then... Never mind, just rent a car :)  

Visiting Nemrut Mountain

Nemrut Mount is also the part of the Nemrut National Park where is under the protection of the Turkish government. Within the Nemrut National Park, there are other places where you can visit and enjoy the nature itself. If you are looking for a place to visit after Mount Nemrut you can visit, Antiochos stimulus, Eskikale, Yenikale, Karakus hill, Cendere Bridge. By the way, entrance fee to the Nemrut Mount and Nemrut National Park is 25 Turkish Liras per person. Let's continue with the thing you need to see during your time in Nemrut. King Clasped with Gods, Antiochus I. To hold its community together and safe, Antiochus I. agreed with the Gods of the Anatolia. As proof of the holy agreement, he made several statues that representing this agreement around the Nemrut. You may the more than one of this king of statues around the Kingdom of Commagene, of course, one in the Nemrut. Pay your respects!

King Clasped with Gods, Nemrut Mount, Adıyaman (Source). Tumulus and Sculptures In total, there are 3 terraces at the Mount Nemrut. If you are looking to visit them all you need to spend at least an hour. Stone statues are at the east and west terraces at Nemrut. And a tumulus at the central terrace. The best-preserved terrace is the east one. Historical records show that there was a temple at the central terrace but today some of the stone head statues are in the exhibition over here. In here you may see the status of Lion, Eagle, Antiochus, Commagene, Zeus, Apollon and Herakles. Also, some of the head put back to its bodies in 2002. After this height of the statues reach up to the 8 to 10 meters. Lion and Eagle These are the protective animal sculptures of the ancient Anatolia. They stood in pair at the beginning and end of the series of other statues and protects them. Unfortunately, only one pair of the four pair survived until today. Eagle, also symbolized the Kingdom of Commagene's sky domination. It is also known as Zeus's tool for delivering his commandments to the people. however, is the symbol of the domination of the Kingdom of Commagene on the mother earth. King Antiochos Antiochos I. built his statues by the gods to gain dignity along with the holy gods. The head of the Antiochos discovers at the 2nd wave of the studies around 1953. The head found under the stone chips during another excavation. Maybe he was not along with the gods whole this time :) Commagene The only and one female god statues along with the other ones. Commagene is the goddess of fertility. Commagene is located between King Antiochos and Zeus. You may notice the grapes and pomegranate motifs at the statues. There are symbolized virility. Also, there is an interesting story about this statue. Until 1963, the statues of Commagene was together with its base. But in the year of 1963, a lighting stroke it and its head fell. A sign from the Zeus, maybe? Zeus The god of the gods, the big boss! Zeus is the highest-ranked god of all the gods. Zeus statue is located at the centre of the line. You may notice that it is bigger than the others. Also, if you take a deep look to its base you can see Zeus has a cape on his shoulder. Apollon The son of Zeus and the symbol of the brightness and mind. Apollon is located just next to the Zeus. On his base, he is holding a branch in his hands. Also, you can see that he is wearing a tunic. Herakles The last statue of the line. Herakles was a mortal and the son of the Alkmene symbolize the human struggle against nature. Herakles is holding a stick on his hand has a beard like Zeus. Tumulus This tumulus is a very big one. It looks like a peak of the mountain but it is the n-made grave of the king. It made by using more than 30.000 cubic meters of crushed stone over the tomb of the king. Mount Nemrut is intentionally chosen for this tomb. Because it is the closest place to the sky. You will understand this when you visit Mount Nemrut. It is not yet clear but the researchers are also thinking that there more than one tomb in here belong to the father of Antiochos, Mithridates and priests. However, the tunnel to the hearth of the tumulus is a long-standing mystery.
