UNIQUE GRAVE UNEARTHED IN ANATOLIA...BONES BECOME PAWNS IN TURKISH PROPAGANDA PLOY!!!
In the January 15th edition of Turkish Daily News we came across the following " news story "...
Archaeologists unearthed a grave in which a human, a horse and a dog were buried, for the first time, in northeastern Anatolia. The discovery of such a grave is accepted as important evidence that ties between Anatolia and Central Asia go back thousands of years. Alpaslan Ceylan of Atatürk University in Erzurum told the Anatolia news agency that the grave was uncovered as a result of a project called “Turkish World Survey Works” and that the grave dated back to around 1,000-2,000 B.C. “Turkish history should be re-written,” he said, adding: “The discovery of the grave is important in terms of Anatolian history. The burial of a human, a horse and a dog in the same grave is a tradition common to the Central Asian and Crimean regions where there are many such graves. However, it is the first time such a grave has been unearthed in Anatolia. It is important evidence showing that the ties between Anatolia and Central Asia dates back thousands of years.
While we do not claim to be archeologists but we ask you....find some bones and now we're lead to believe that the history of Anatolia must be rewritten to conform to the political mythologies of the Turkish state???
