Amastris Heykeli

Nice place worth seeing.

I just loved the area. There are great fish restaurants there. I would recommend it if you were in the area. Gerçekten turkiyede görünmesi gereken yerlerden biri. Kesinlikle tavsiye ederim. Gitmişken bir de balık lokantalardan yerseniz işiniz tam demektir. Şimdiden afiyet olsun.

In those years, during the Persian invasion that Alexander the Great ended, when Alexander was the winner, he married his general Craterus to Amastris, but Craterus ended the marriage after a short while. Amastris has other marriages and they have two children from these marriages. In the meantime, Amastris, who liked Amasra, whose name is known as Sesamos, gives the city its own name and builds the city. This is also the center of the 4 urban unions formed in the Black Sea. The union grows stronger and their son opposes Amastris' strength so much and they decide to kill him. Amastris was strangled to death by his sons in 284 BC. The Macedonian General Lysimachus, the third ex-wife of Amastris, hears this and assassinates Amastris' sons, under the pretext of revenge of the queen, mainly because it suited her political interests ....
