Hi everyone, you will have to bare with me I am new to this? I am not an expert on Roman History although I am a casual enthusiast. I have visited Turkey about 20 times although I haven't been for 11 years, I am planning to visit again next year mainly the Lycian coastal area, staying in my favourite resort Patara, has anyone been to this region? It is simply stunning, I have many photographs having visited places such as, Xanthos, Letoon, Myra and Tlos and patara. This time I am going back with a digital camera and going to take more pictures. I was looking on a lycian website where I was horrified to discover that most of the artifacts in Lycia are in the British Mueseum, and a lot of the tombs etc have been replaced by "casts", does anyone agree that these items should be returned to their natural locations? I believe someone called John Fellows discovered these items and took them to England. Also has anyone been to Patara, it is the most beautifull place.
