Archaeological site Pinara in Seydikemer

You're standing at Pinara, once one of the largest cities of ancient Lycia. First, look at that huge round rock towering over the ruins. That's probably where the name comes from. In Lycian the city was called Pilleñni, which most likely means something like 'round' or 'round hill'. Can you see all those openings in the cliff face? They're tombs, cut straight into the rock. The British explorer Charles Fellows, who identified the ruins, wrote that the cliff was literally speckled all over with tombs.
