Leftovers of 1500-year-old buildings were found as a result of excavations in Adiyaman.

Studies have shown that these buildings belonged to the monastery of the 15th century.

Materials found during the excavations include places of prayer, parts of the temple and other archaeological objects.

These discoveries are important for the study of history and culture, as they provide an opportunity to analyze the historical developments of the region.

It is possible that the monastery was Armenian and was supposedly destroyed during the genocide against Armenians.

After the  Genocide massacres of 1915, Armenians settled again in Adiyaman.

In 1971, 52 Armenian families lived in Adiyaman.

The hero of the French resistance movement,Misak Manushyan was born in Adiyaman.

As a result, the most beautiful and historical buildings found in these areas document the importance of Armenian cultural heritage and the historical presence of Armenians in Western Armenia.
