Roman Tombs discovered in Istanbul
#1
Hi all,

Some large tomb stones recovered during an road building near University of Istanbul. Since excavations was done carelessly and without observation of archeologists they are partly harmed and now handed over to authorities of Istanbul Archeological Museum. Sad

Really looks to my layman eyes as if the front right 'ear' has broken off freshly. Either due to open carelessness or the bucket of the excavator hit it upon discovery accidentally.
