Mount Nemrut or Nemrud is a 2,150-metre-high (7,054 ft) mountain in southeastern Turkey, notable for the summit where a number of large statues are erected around what is assumed to be a royal tomb from the 1st century BC. It is one of the highest peaks in the east of the Taurus Mountains.

Nevalı Çori was an early Neolithic settlement on the Euphrates River, in Şanlıurfa, Turkey. It is dated to the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B period, from around 8400 to 8100 BC and is part of the Taş Tepeler sites. The site is known for having some of the world's oldest known temples and monumental sculpture. Together with the earlier site of Göbekli Tepe and other Taş Tepeler sites, it has revolutionised scientific understanding of the Eurasian Neolithic period. The oldest domesticated Einkorn wheat was found here.
