When you look at its geopolitical position, it is located at the intersection of the most important trade routes that come from Northern Mesopotamia and connect to the west and northwest. The fact that the trades flow between Anatolia and Mesopotamia was made over Harran for thousands of years has led to a rich cultural accumulation in this historical city. Archaeological excavations at Höyük(Mound), the first settlement of Harran, discovered traces of uninterrupted life starting from 3000 BC until the 13th century A.C. The most remarkable artefacts found in the excavations belong to the 6th century B.C. Come on; pack up whatever equipment you have to take pictures!
