Comments[edit]

Untitled[edit]

The article says: "Around 300 AD Isauria was established as an independent state with Seleucia as the capital". This never happened. About 294 aC Isauria was created independent province!!!--88.3.132.173 (talk) 20:26, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rumor, not a fact[edit]

There is a comment about the governance status of Silifke:...reduced to being a district of Mersin as punishment for voting for the opposition party. This is a just a rumor with no reliable source behind. In an encyclopaedic article unsourced material can be given only under rumors or unsourced claims subsection.

Article on Silifke[edit]

I am afraid the presence of the Armenians of cilicia in Silifke has been left out. At the main entrance to the castle at Silifke there is a huge stella above the main porch written in Armenian which says that it is the Hayots Pert(Castle of the Armenians) by King Hetum of Cilicia. The lower half of this stella which is huge, has been broken and is still near the main porch in an inverted position. Similarly, there are Armenian inscritpions on the walls of the chapel. Ths Wikipedia article and the notice board by the Turkish Tourist authorities fail to mention any of these. I have personally seen and read the inscriptions. A few years ago an Armenian TV documentary had recorded these. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.153.247 (talk) 10:45, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
