Turkish Museums Tour and King Midas Tomb (With Facts/Figures)
If you love world history and enjoy seeing artifacts that are thousands of years old, you're going to enjoy this video. We visited three museums in Turkey-the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations in Ankara, the Gordion Museum in the ancient city of Gordion, and the Pergamon (Bergama) Museum in Pergamon. I literally filmed hundreds of objects, some thousands of years old. Besides the museums, we visited the underground tomb of the legendary King Midas, which was located across the street from the Gordion Museum.

Footage from King Midas' Tomb at Gordion, Turkey 1951 and 1957
This footage was shot during two excavation seasons at Gordion, Turkey in 1951 and 1957. The Midas Mound was opened in 1957 by an archaeological team headed by Rodney Young who appears at the beginning of the film and makes a brief appearance as he pieces together decorative wall moldings. The footage from 1951 shows men from a local village building a mud brick house at the site. The workers used mules to haul away debris during excavation. Also captured on film are the first images of the opening of the Tomb of King Midas. Footage includes shots of King Midas skeleton, cauldrons, belts, safety pins, and metal bowls strewn about the grave.
The footage from 1957 was shot by Samuel B. Eckert (1884-1973), who served as a member of the Board of Managers of The University Museum from 1943-1973.

Gordion
The capital city of the Phrygian empire, the remains of the renowned city of Gordion are near the Ankara-Eskisehir highway at the confluence of the Sakarya and Porsuk rivers, 21 km northwest of Polatli, and 90 km from Ankara, in the village of Yassihoyuk.
The history of Gordion goes back to 3000 BC (Early Bronze Age). It was an important settlement during the Assyrian and Hittite periods (1950 BC - 1180 BC) and, of course, the Phrygian era (900 BC - 620 BC), during which it was the capital city. It was named after King Gordios, the king who made it the capital. The famous knot made by King Gordios was cut in two by Alexander the Great in 333 BC, when he wintered in Gordion.
The period of Alexander the Great (300 BC -100 BC) began in Gordion with his conquest. Following that, the area came under the control of the Romans (1st century BC to 4th century AD) and then the Selcuks (11th - 13th century AD). All of this occurred in the short space of 4000 years.
GORDION MUSEUM
Established near a small village with a population of 500, known as Yassıhöyük, in 1963. Today there is a chronological exhibition in Gordion Museum and every period is represented with characteristic examples. In three exhibition vitrines there are works of the the Early Bronze Age and these are followed by artefacts of the Early Phrygian Period, which ended with King Midas. The objects that are exhibited include: handmade pots and pans belonging to the Early Iron Age, iron equipment belonging to the Early Phyrigian Period, and equipment of textile production. In the new exhibition gallery, a typical structure of layers of ruins dated 700 B.C. within a panoramic window. Greek ceramics imported in the ages 6 B.C.-4 A.C. and materials belonging to the Hellenistic Age and Roman periods are exhibited in the other parts of the new gallery. The visitors are able to see the examples of seals and coins that were found in Gordian in the last section.
Revealing the City of King Midas: Archaeology and Conservation at Gordion
Located about 100 kilometers southwest of Ankara, Turkey, Gordion was continually inhabited for nearly 4,000 years and is one of the most important archaeological sites in the Near East. In this talk, Dr. C. Brian Rose, Ferry Curator-in-Charge, Mediterranean Section, and Frank Matero, Professor of Architecture, University of Pennsylvania, present an overview of the most recent archaeological and conservation fieldwork under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania—including new discoveries with the monumental Midas Mound and a new circuit of fortifications revealed by remote sensing. The talk highlights the benefits of a conjoined archaeological and conservation research program working together to reveal, interpret, and present this remarkable site.
Gordion (1957)
In 1950, the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology began excavations at the ancient Phrygian capital of Gordion in central Turkey. The Museum's Gordion Project continues into the new century, with researchers from many disciplines and with many specializations contributing to a growing-and sometimes changing-body of information and understanding about this complex and multifaceted site, inhabited by peoples and diverse civilizations for millennia. In its seventh season, in 1957, the early Gordion expedition team, led by Dr. Rodney Young, made one of the most spectacular archaeological discoveries of the 20th century. In the largest burial mound at the site, they located what eventually came to be identified as the tomb of Gordion's most famous son, King Midas.

Gordion was the capital of ancient Phrygia and reputed home of King Midas (c. 700 B.C.). Its monuments include the Midas Mound (Tumulus MM), over a hundred smaller burial mounds, and the ancient city of Gordion itself. Studies of the modern forest and steppe vegetation suggest how ancient people may have used different areas within the landscape. Plant remains recovered from the settlement document changes in vegetation and land use from about 1200 BC to 1000 AD. Inspired by our glimpses of formerly healthy steppe vegetations, the Gordion Project is using plants as an aid for historical preservation and interpretation.

The superb Museum of Anatolian Civilisations is the perfect introduction to the complex weave of Turkey's ancient past, with beautifully curated exhibits housing artefacts cherry-picked from just about every significant archaeological site in Anatolia.The central hall houses reliefs and statuary, while the surrounding halls take you on a journey of staggering history from Palaeolithic, Neolithic, Chalcolithic, Bronze Age, Assyrian, Hittite, Phrygian, Urartian and Lydian periods. Downstairs is a collection of Roman artefacts unearthed at excavations in and around Ankara.The exhibits are chronologically arranged starting with the Palaeolithic and Neolithic displays to the right of the entrance, then continue in an anticlockwise direction. Do the full loop before visiting the central hall and then backtrack to see the Roman exhibits downstairs.Items unearthed from one of the most important Neolithic sites in the world – Çatalhöyük, southeast of Konya – are displayed here including the most famous mother goddess sculptures and the wall mural thought by some experts to be the world's first town map.Also on show are many finds from the Assyrian trading colony Kültepe, one of the world's oldest and wealthiest bazaars. These include baked-clay tablets found at the site, which dates to the beginning of the 2nd millennium BC.The hall devoted to Hittite artefacts is where the museum really shines, with fascinating displays of Hattuşa's haul of cuneiform tablets and striking figures of bulls and stags. The Hittites were known for their relief work, and some mighty slabs representing the best pieces found in the country, generally from around Hattuşa, are on display in the museum's central room.Most of the finds from the Phrygian capital Gordion, including incredible inlaid wooden furniture, are on display in the last hall. The exhibits also include limestone blocks with still-indecipherable inscriptions resembling the Greek alphabet, and lion- and ram-head ritual vessels that show the high quality of Phrygian metalwork.Urartian artifacts are also on display here. Spurred by rich metal deposits, the Urartians were Anatolia's foremost metalworkers, as the knives, horse-bits, votive plates and shields on display demonstrate. This last hall also contains neo-Hittite artefacts and terracotta figures of gods in human form, some revealing their divine powers by growing scorpion tails.

Entry from: Ankara, Turkey
Entry Title: Gordian Nut & Ankara
Entry:
I am so happy with Turkish food. I really thought it would be all meats and mushy stuff that I wouldn't recognize. Well, shame on me. Breakfasts at home are fiber cereal, yogurt, and if it's there, some fruit. Turkey is the king of breakfast foods. I can't get my fill (although I overstuff myself) with the best yogurts I have ever eaten. And there are so many things to put in the yogurt. Their granola cereals have me jumping out of bed in the morning. So every morning at 5am, I'm showered and waiting for Julie and the girls to get dressed and hit the breakfast buffet. Today we've got Art and Gail at breakfast. They've been part of the back of the bus gang since day 2. Art has a treasure trove of Turkish tour books, and also the MAP. A large English language version map of Turkey, high lighted with our route. NOW we finally know where we are, and where we are going to. Art is the logistics expert. Our itinerary says we're headed for the Gordian Nut. I'm not sure I have a clue of where this is so my first question to Art is where is the Nut and what in the heck is the Nut. He gives me that puzzled you don't know about the Nut? look. I tell him I'm clueless. Which he agrees to almost too rapidly. He could have waited a few seconds before agreeing with me. The Nut he says. You know about Alexander the Great and the Nut. Nope, and I don't know why there is so much historical importance about Alexander the great cutting up a nut. Then we discuss the size of the nut and how it was cut. I'm just going along with this because I really don't have any knowledge of the whole incident. Finally he whips out one of his travel books and points to the Gordian knot. Seems there was a error in translating the English word knot. Ok, I admit, I was gullible. But I am now on alert for any of Art's future jokes. A bathroom break is announced. Julie and I are the first off the bus and in the rest stop, which always happens to be a combined restaurant, gift shop, car wash and toilet facility. Usually these stops do not charge for the bathroom use - one Turkish lira. Julie and I walk in the bathroom and wonder if we are in Las Vegas. HUGE. Gorgeous. We can't believe something this big and modern can be in the middle of nowhere. Even our stadiums and concert facilities in the US have nothing to compare to this blue tiled baby. Then we both open the stall doors and laugh. It's beautiful and clean but it's all squatter facilities. But when in Turkey, you sometimes have to do as the Turkish. We're eating lunch here, so the six of us grab a table. Art asks if I saw Pedro when we pulled in. Pedro? Yep, says Art. He's very famous in Turkey. We have something like him in the US. When you drive down 95 on the Carolina border and see Pedro's South of the Border signs Art says we'll see Pedro a lot in Turkey. They even have books about him. I decide to eat a little quicker so I can walk back up the parking lot, which is pretty long to get my photo of Pedro, riding backwards on his donkey. When I'm back near the bus, I tell Mary Jane about Pedro, and she's walking back for her photo. Julies been shopping, and finds a really colorful cloth purse with tassels. It's perfect for her. We both grab some bottles of water. It's going to be another hour's ride till we find the knot (not nut). This is sugar beet country. Farm after farm is passing by. To say the knot is out in the middle of nowhere is an understatement. Physically, the knot no longer is. This is Mufasta's take on the nutty knot One day, according to ancient Greek legend, the father of the gods ordained that when it came time to select a king, they must choose the first person to ride up to the temple of Zeus in a cart. On the appointed day, a Gordius, a poor peasant arrived with his wife at the temple in an ox cart. An oracle had previously informed the citizens that their future king would come into town riding in a wagon. When the towns citizens saw Gordiuson the ox cart, they made him king. In gratitude, Gordius dedicated his ox cart to Zeus and placed it near the temple then tied the yoke to the ...

Recent Excavations at Gordion, Royal City of Midas
Located approximately 100 km southwest of Ankara, Gordion was continually inhabited for nearly 4000 years and is one of the most important archaeological sites in the Near East. Its heyday was in the first half of the first millennium BCE when it was the royal capital of the powerful Iron Age kingdom known as Phrygia to the Greeks and Mushki to the neighboring Assyrian empire. Gordion's fabled king Midas, in myth cursed with asses' ears and the golden touch, was actually an historical figure, and the monumental burial mound (Tumulus MM) that bears his name was probably one of his first building projects. This talk presents an overview of the most recent fieldwork conducted under the auspices of the Penn Museum, including new discoveries with the Midas Mound and a new circuit of fortifications revealed by remote sensing.
