International "castle without handrail" warning sign |
 |
When the Ottomans took over in 1523 or so, they walled-up the castle's dungeon and Christian torture chamber--which bore this cute inscription ("no God abides here") |
 |
When the museum staff took over, 400 years later, they un-walled the dungeon and found various real instruments of torture, several "solitary" confinement areas, and not a few bones; here's Vicki descending to where no God abides |
 |
To wit... |
 |
Like many museum jobs, you just hang around, keeping an eye on the visitors... |
 |
This one really cracked us up |
 |
But best was the "symposium of eastern Mediterranean amphoras" |
 |
Someone had a lot of fun doing this... |
 |
What else are you going to do with the rest of the world's largest collection of amphoras? |
