Ongoing excavations at the Heraion-Teikhos ancient city in the western province of Tekirdag have unearthed a temple at the city's acropolis. The temple, belonging to the ancient Thracian civilization, was thought to have disappeared in a fire that occurred in 2 BC. The continuing work at the temple has revealed many interesting artworks thus far, the excavation chairwoman says... The ongoing excavations in the pantheon of the ancient city of Heraion-Teikhos... started this year at the beginning of August, according to the excavation chairwoman, Professor Nese Atik from Ahi Evran University's archaeology department... She said that they were working to uncover the temple at the acropolis (the highest hill) of the city. "According to the data we have, we thought that the temple burned down in a fire. We have so far removed statues of gods including Kybele, Eros and Aphrodite as well as bronze coins, amphora and similar pieces from the temple," she said.
In just one week of work, the temple has yielded very interesting pieces of art, Atik said, noting that dogs were blessed animals in the Thracian civilization. "Dogs were sacrificed for good luck in this period. We saw light yellow spots in the earth when we first started the excavations. And then we found oblation valleys. We found the head of a bull last year, too," she said, noting that the temple had three different phases.

Odd that the ones considered ‘blessed’ are always the first ones to have their heads chopped off.
It would be far better for the Turks to start restoring Christian churches they have destroyed or built mosques on. And while they’re at it, how about identifying and unearthing mass graves of genocided Christians...and the creation of some sort of memorial to commemorate Muslim Turk ferocity.
Stupid Turks full of an inferiority complex. Thracian? NO, Greek. The name itself - Heraion Teihos -means walls of Hera in Greek a city which build on thracian coast by Greeks from the island of Samos in the 7th century BC.
Yeah, I had a good laugh about that. :’)
Thanks for making sure everybody understands that we don’t rape men. Just what’s let over from the Greeks, we rape.
Nice picture, btw. It brings back memories. We had the ok from the USA to go in. We still do. We kicked your gay butts. Still hurts huh?
You had the OK from Mohamedan satan to do what you did. Take your ugly hordes and go back to whatever hell you came from why doncha?
Things not looking too good for you AH’s are they? Not many tears to be shed when you turkeys get your buts kicked good.
I see-— it’s during the unholy ramadan the vampire Turks emerge from their holes. Whatever...you are screwed no matter what you do.
Turk Males who play the active role in homosexual relations are not socially regarded as homosexuals in the Turkish culture.
The active homosexual role is more likely to be assumed as a variety of sexuality experienced by a heterosexual male. That is, homosexuality is rather restricted in meaning and covers almost exclusively effeminacy and the passive homosexual role.
...military service, which is compulsory for every Turkish male citizen, the effeminate, passive partner is sent for medical evaluation and eventually discharged from the army.
“If you wish to cross this sea of fate, you must first answer these questions twenty-eight!”
As a god forsaken turk you have read or been taught the Qur’an and the hadiths which clearly demonstrate that Mo’med was overly obsessed with sexual activity and apparently thought of women as large walking vaginas whose sole responsibility was to be “ready” and yet covered so no one could see. If a woman is raped it is her fault as she should have been covered in her home in her own room where no one could see her.
In this way Muslim men like you are not at fault. the woman is to blame. This is the reason that women are accused of adultery, beaten and imprisoned if they are raped.
In your muslim cult there detailed narration of the correct way to rape women, even sodomize them. Rape law is even applied to the rape of infants and young females that is sodomizing them is acceptable while penetration is not
The moon god however is merciful to the male and so if he penetrates he can be forgiven.
You need help...I hope you can get it.
>> large walking vaginas
wow. why large?
