 Harbor Ruins Revealed When The Sea Receded


The 2,000-year-old harbor ruins of the Ancient City of Knidos in the Datça District of Muğla have resurfaced after the waters receded.


The storage areas for olive oil, wine and agricultural products, as well as boat berths, emerged when the waters receded in Knidos Harbor, which has a history of two thousand years from the Ancient Roman Period. It has been stated that the ancient port of Knidos came to light from time to time at the Burgaz Ruins in Datça due to sea activity, precipitation, erosion on the coast and sea retreats.
