<a href="https://gaziantep.ktb.gov.tr/TR-52355/anit-mezarlar.html" rel="noreferrer nofollow">gaziantep.ktb.gov.tr/TR-52355/anit-mezarlar.html</a> Elif Mausoleum is in Elif Village of Araban District. The village of Elif is the ancient city of Sugga, and according to the information on the ancient map showing the Roman period road routes, Dolikhe (Dülük)-Is around the intersection of Samosata (Samsat) and Zeugma-Samosata roads. The Elif Mausoleum is also built of cut stone, just like the Hisar, and consists of a body resting on a high pedestal and a vaulted cover system covering the body. The mausoleum's eastern, western and southern facades are arcMausoleumnorthern facade is closed by building a wall, and a rectangular doorway is left in the lower middle part. The four bulky pier columns forming the body of the Mausoleum have beMausoleumed by the arches resting on the Corinthian capitals. Thus, the building gained an aesthetic appearance. Although we cannot say anything definite about the covering system of the Elif Mausoleum, it is understood from the remains that it may be a vault. Elif Mausoleum is also dated to the end of the 2nd century AD and the beginning of the 3rd century AD. |
