An ancient mound on the Konya plain in Turkey that has recently been identified as a major city of the 2nd-1st millennium BCE, and possibly the once Hittite capital, Tarhuntašša. A tip from a local Turkish farmer led archaeologists to this stone half-submerged in an irrigation canal. Inscriptions from the 8th century B.C. are still visible. More details in the comments on our page.
