My ICARDA mates, Eunice Carter and Michael Baum, did a four or five day roadtrip to Nemrut Dağı, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in April 1992. THe mountain top is littered with statutes and it is assumed to be a royal tomb from the 1st century BC.
Perhaps we were pushing the season as a lot the area was covered with snow. I only took two photos from the summit … don’t know why.
On the way home, we saw a farmer tilling his field with horses about three kms from Hasanoğlu. Michael asked to get a lesson.
I didn’t keep a journal on this trip so the recollections are poor and I took very few photos for some reason.
