Underground city that was discovered accidentally - PHOTO
In 1963, one person in the region of Capadocia in Turkey was restoring his house, when he made an incredible discovery.
He found a stone gateway that leads into a cave and that lead to an underground city, thousands of years old and about 85 meters deep.
There are 13 floors to descend underground, ventilation system and about fifteen thousand branches that carry air in deeper levels. But what is incredible is the fact that the underground city can live about 20 thousand people. Even there are also traces of religious centers, warehouse, wine cellar and stables for animals. In the dining room are found underground, blackened by soot kitchens, grocery stores, a school, numerous rooms and even a bar.
The city has benefited from the presence of an underground river and water wells. It was a small town that meet most of the needs of the community that even today amazes researchers and scientists. Build a city like Derinkuyu, it would be a common thing in modern times, using the most sophisticated equipment.
But to think that such an act is carried out in a very remote age, it is amazing, comparable only with the pyramids of Egypt.
According to many archaeologists and scholars, Derinkuyu is likely to have service as a temporary shelter during the occupation and that the city was built around 800 BC by the Phrygians, a Bronze Age people connected with Trojans.
