Nemrut, another Armenian Pyramid!
Mount
Nemrut, which itself resembles a pyramid on which the ancient statues, believed
to be old Armenian objects of warship, are located in the territory of
historic Armenia (nowadays the territory of Turkey).
Mt
Nemrut, Kahta is a natural mountain (2150m), with a 50 meter artificial peak
built on top. It was constructed as a tomb during the period 80 B.C-72 B.C. If
pyramids are meant to represent mountains, the builders of this one have gone a
step further by placing it on top of a real mountain. Not just an artificial
mound, this site features huge (10 meter high) statues.
