“The tomb stone is huge. However the most important thing about this discovery lies behind to whom it belongs,” he added.

The tomb stone belongs to Mausolos’s father and Mausolos’s tomb is already a wonder of the ancient world.


There is no question to whom it belongs-is clearly belongs to Turks ancestors!!!!
