Tlos Archaeological Site Fethiyevisitor guide.

The ruins of Tlos in Kale neighborhood of Yaka Village are reached 13 km from Kemer on the Fethiye-Korkuteli road. We know the Lycians participated in the Trojan War around 1200 BC. Recovered documents show that the history of Lycian cities extends back to the 5th century BC. As earlier records are lacking, their foundation remains uncertain. Life in Lycia began in the 2nd millennium BC; an axe discovered by chance at Tlos dating to the 2nd millennium BC confirms this thesis. Thus, we know that Tlos existed in the 2nd millennium BC under the name Talawa. Future discoveries will help trace Lycian history further back. We know that Tlos joined the Lycian League in the 2nd century BC. Enduring through the Byzantine era, Tlos is one of the rare archaeological sites that preserved continuous habitation until the 19th century.
