Gerga, Archaeological site in Deliklitaş, Çine district, Turkey.
The ancient ruins of Gerga include residential structures, public buildings, and fortifications built into the mountainous terrain of Caria region.
The settlement originated during the Archaic period, developing into a strategic point along trade routes through the mountains of ancient Caria.
The temple complex features a triangular pediment and houses a statue believed to represent Kybele, indicating religious practices of ancient inhabitants.
