TO ASIA MINOR.

At this point there is an ancient quarry; a number of large
quarried blocks lie scattered about. Hence a steep descent south-
west to Tchukur Bagh j then we ascend east to the site of an ancient
village. A number of sarcophagi are apparently in situ. Some of
these sarcophagi are absolutely solid, lid and all, and are adorned
with bas-reliefs. The source of the Goderet Su is at Goderet, a vil-
lage said to be five hours' distant from Tchukur Bagh. This distance
would probably be equivalent to from one and a half to two hours
on the map, as the country is exceedingly steep and difficult; and I
could see the head of Goderet Deresi, certainly not more than two
level hours distant from Tchukur Bagh.

From the ancient cemetery we descend to Fet (20 m.).

Fet. Rock sep7ilclire a short distance west of the village. Copy.

Leaving Fet, we recross the mountain east by Gtinde to Ilamos
(1 hi. 55 m.).

Goderet Deresi, from Daran down to its junction with Bash Dere,
is impassable for quadrupeds ; this is true also below the junction of
the two deres up to the junction of the two arms of the Gok Su.
The canon is very narrow, with high perpendicular bluffs on both
sides.
