Remains of 1,600-year-old Roman fort unearthed in Turkey



Archaeologists have unearthed a fourth-century Roman military structure in southeastern Turkey, confirming historical records of the fortress’s construction during the reign of Emperor Constantius II.

The newly uncovered structure was found at Hasankeyf, one of the oldest continuously inhabited sites in the world. Over a span of 10,000 years, more than 20 cultures — including the Assyrians, Byzantines and Ottomans — built this Tigris River settlement.
