Two tumuluses found in Turkey's ancient Daskyleion

What part of the turkey is the daskyleion, and what's a tumuluse doing there? And why are they eating old turkey anyhow?

Ok. There used to be a pop song in the 80s with the words “Istanbul or Constantinople”. I was thinking of it.

The only problem with Turkey is they have a law that lets you reside on the land if you have a roof by morning. You may have noticed the homes built on boulder fields. They make great walls until the earth shakes and uses the boulders to bury them.

“In a Turkish tomb you lie.”

But in every other place in this excavation you better tell the truth!
