Arsameia, Archaeological site in Adiyaman, Türkiye.
Stone reliefs along the processional path display scenes of kings meeting divine figures in this mountain settlement of ancient Commagene.
The settlement became the summer capital of the Commagene Kingdom in the 2nd century BC, serving as an administrative center near Kahta Stream.
The stone inscriptions present the longest Greek text found in Anatolia, detailing administration methods and religious ceremonies of the Commagene civilization.
The archaeological site maintains regular visiting hours from 10:00 to 19:00 in summer and 8:00 to 17:00 during winter months.
The underground tunnel system extends 158 meters into the mountain, leading to chambers whose original purpose remains unknown to researchers.
