Gordion, Turkey
Article Abstract:
The archaeological site in Gordion near Ankara, Turkey, remains one of the University of Pennsylvania Museum's famous and long-running excavations. The excavation, which began in 1950 under the supervision of University of Pennsylvania archaeologist Rodney S. Young, has already revealed a rich cache of artifacts, the most significant of which is the Midas Mound, which covered a wooden chamber thought to be King Midas's tomb. The chamber and two other burial mounds excavated from Gordion contained rare wooden furniture that museum and city officials are trying to conserve.
