Editor's Note
About 5 km southeast of the ancient city of Antiocheia (3.5 km as the crow flies), in the Gemen Grove at an altitude of roughly 1,600 m, lies a sanctuary made up of buildings clustered around a temple dedicated to Men, the Moon God of ancient Anatolian belief. Dedicated to Men, who was Antiocheia's chief deity from the Phrygian period through to early Christian times, this sanctuary is the only urbanized religious center of its kind in the world; it has no equal.
