Archaeology Museum

The Gaziantep Archaeology Museum (Gaziantep Arkeoloji Müzesi), founded by Sebahat Göğüş, one of the first female archaeologists of the Republican period, has an interesting and rich collection. The museum literally takes visitors on a historical journey from the past to the present, with exhibition units from the Early Paleolithic Period to the present. In 106 showcases in the museum, the exhibition begins with fossils and rocks from the Geological period, and continues with artifacts from the Paleolithic, Neolithic, Chalcolithic, Bronze Ages, Hittite, Hurrian, Persian, Greek, Roman, Eastern Roman, Islamic, and Ottoman periods.
