Along the south coast of Turkey in Mersin Province, several massive #megalithic sites with polygonal and cyclopean walls exist, hidden in the hills and mountains. Remarkably similar to sites in Italy, Greece and even Peru, these structures are thought to be Hellenistic (Seleucid Empire) built around 2300 years ago. The site of Meydan Kalesi (Square Castle) has rock-cut hypogeum features, 3D relief carvings and Tiwanaku-like monolithic doorways, yet it is unclear who may have built the first phase of megalithic construction. Includes exclusive aerial footage.

A quick zoom out and aerial view of the infamous #Cerne #Giant in #Dorset with the Mysteries of #England tour group in July 2022. The origin and age of the figure are unclear, and there is archaeological evidence that parts of it have been lost, altered or added over time. The earliest written records date to the late 17th century, while soil samples indicate possibly 700 AD.
