\n………………<\/p>\n
A team of Turkish academics accidentally uncovered a 600-year-old temple carved into rock during field research in Nev\u015fehir province, central Turkey, Anadolu Agency reported. The temple, previously used as a wood storage by locals, was found near the historic Ta\u015fken Pasha Mosque and school.<\/p>\n
Experts believe the stone temple dates back to the Artuqid Emirate period (1337\u20131399), reflecting Seljuk-era architectural and decorative styles. The site, previously undocumented in historical records, has remained well-preserved due to its concealment. <\/p>\n
This discovery enriches Nev\u015fehir\u2019s cultural heritage, already known for its Islamic and Ottoman monuments, and is expected to attract scholars of ancient Islamic architecture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
