KULTEPE
North
of Kayseri, Kultepe, known in ancient times as Kanesh
or Karum was one of the earliest Hittite commercial
trade cities. Today, however, only the foundations
remain. Many of the finds can be examined in the
Kültepe Museum as well as in the Kayseri
Archaeological Museum. On the same road is Sultan Han,
a caravansary built by the Seljuk Sultan Alaeddin
Keykubat in the early 13th century and a favorite stop
for tourists.
