Ekrem Akurgal



Ekrem Akurgal (1911-2002) was a prominent and internationally famous Turkish archaeologist. During a career that spanned more than fifty years, he conducted definitive research in several sites along the western coast of Anatolia such as Phokaia (Foça), Pitane (Çandarlı), Erythrai (Ildırı) and old Smyrna (the Bayraklı tumulus, the original site of Smyrna before the city's move to another spot in the Gulf of İzmir).
