Gaziantep Museum of Archaeology, Archaeological museum in Gaziantep, Turkey
The Gaziantep Museum of Archaeology displays collections from paleolithic artifacts to Ottoman coins across multiple exhibition halls filled with regional discoveries.
Opened in 2005, the museum underwent significant changes when its mosaic collection transferred to the new Zeugma Mosaic Museum, leading to a complete renovation.
The museum exhibits trace human development through stone tools, bronze weapons, Hittite sculptures, Persian artifacts, and Islamic period items from the region.
Located near Gaziantep railway station, the museum features wheelchair accessibility, informative panels in multiple languages, and guided tours for groups.
The museum garden contains an open-air collection of stone artifacts including pagan tombstones from Zeugma and a preserved mammoth skeleton.
