Category:Narlıkuyu Mosaic Museum

The town's name used to be “Tatlı Su” or “sweet water”, since a spring supplied drinkable water, probably it came from caves in the hinterland. They seem to have supplied water to a fourth century Roman bath, of which the small museum (well, it’s a room) houses a mosaic. This mosaic shows the Three Graces, a text reads “Whoever drinks this water will become wise and have a long life, who’s ugly will turn beautiful”.
