2,000-year-old column collapsed in the earthquake will be restored in April

Adıyaman

One of the 4 columns in the Karakuş Tumulus, which was destroyed in the 7.7 and 7.6 magnitude earthquake in Kahramanmaraş on February 6, the 'Handshake Column' collapsed. The 7 stones in the column fell without falling apart. The structure with the handshake scene on the column was taken after the earthquake and taken to the Adıyaman Museum Directorate. It was learned that the eagle column in the Karakuş Tumulus slipped 10 centimeters from where it was located.

Adıyaman Deputy Minister of Culture and Tourism Ahmet Misbah Demircan, Chairman of the National Defense Commission of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey Ahmet Aydın came to the Karakuş Tumulus and received information from Culture and Tourism Director Abuzer Gelse and Museum Director Mehmet Alkan.

The 2,043-year-old column in the Karakuş Tumulus, one of the important ruins of the Commagene Civilization, will be restored in April.

Deputy Minister of Culture and Tourism Ahmet Misbah Demircan stated that the collapsed column would be intervened immediately and said, “We will intervene immediately to the collapsed column. There are four columns in the Karakuş Tumulus, and one of the columns collapsed in the earthquake. The column consists of stones stacked on top of each other. Therefore, we are lucky that there was no breakage or disintegration in the parts of the collapsed column. In this sense, we plan to restore these stones by stacking them on top of each other under the supervision of the technical team and scientific committee. This work is expected to be completed in April."

Talking about the severity of the earthquake, Ahmet Aydın, Chairman of the National Defense Commission of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, said, “We observed together that this column, which stood for 2 thousand 43 years, collapsed in the 6 February earthquake. It also tells us how big this earthquake was."
