Ancient Roman shipyard found in Alanya CastleAn interesting discovery was made on the beach in front of Alanya Castle, which was built in the Hellenistic period and rebuilt by the Seljuks who conquered the city in 1221, due to the harsh winter and waves this year. “We've had a severe winter this year and the existence of a Roman shipyard, a dock, has been unearthed under moss and dunes due to the waves” said excavation chief Prof. Dr. Osman Eravsar speaking about the discovery.
