ANKARA capital

by Kuznetsov_Sergey - last update: Jun 10, 2009

Ankara - Capital
Ankara has gone by several names over the ages: The Hittites gave it the name Ankuwash before 1200 BC. The Galatians and Romans called it Ancyra. In the classical, Hellenistic, and Byzantine periods it was known as Ánkyra.

 I enjoyed your page, real history here. We want to visit Turkey, had a day trip to Marmaris from Rhodes 2008, now want to explore the "Real Turkey".

 Excellent page on Turkey's capital. Turkey is one of our favourite countries in Europe to visit. We hope to visit Ankara on our next trip to Turkey. ~ho & pang

 Hi Sergey! So, the Hittites used to be in Ankara --- it was gruesome pictures that I saw in Egypt with the Egyptians mutilating some of the Hittites...Did you see those reliefs in Egypt (on the pylons)?

 Ah, Turkey finally :-) I love the new video format and like the music very much, a bit "Central Asian" :-) The Turkish village looks soooo picturesque and I also like the museum and its exhibits in your videos and TLs!
