Idyros, Archaeological site in Kemer, Turkey.

The ancient ruins of Idyros spread across the coastal area of Kemer, featuring structural remains from multiple historical periods near the Mediterranean Sea.

Archaeological excavations between 1976 and 1977 revealed a Greek cross-planned mosaic church dating back to the 4th century AD at the Idyros site.

The necropolis area contains distinctive amphora tombs from the 1st to 3rd centuries AD, similar to burial structures found in Italy, Spain, and North Africa.

The archaeological site currently requires increased conservation efforts as portions of the area have been converted into a parking facility since 2015.

Ceramic artifacts discovered at Idyros demonstrate continuous settlement patterns from the Hellenistic Period through the Roman and Byzantine eras.
