Yakabag, Turkey

Hits on Yakabag are mostly for tourism.

“Look, look! We have Greek ruins! See, here used to be a temple! There are columns and pieces of statues. Of course the temple was destroyed, most likely in an earthquake. But not to matter! There has not been an earthquake here since maybe five years. And, see! We have Roman ruins! Here was an amphitheater! Yes, most of it has fallen. Again, probably from an earthquake. And, look! Here is a mosaic floor, possibly from a Byzantine church, perhaps from a wealthy Byzantine merchant. Do I think he was a Christian? Perhaps. Possibly. Or he could have been a pagan, living as a Christian and perhaps became a True Believer when the Army of Allah – praise be upon him – entered the area at the behest of the downtrodden and freed them from Christian tyranny.”

None of the hits say that. But all of Turkey was Greek, Roman or Byzantine Christian at one time. Christian far longer than any other.

From one hit I did learn that ZIP Code stands for Zone Improvement Plan. How government-sounding.
