Editor's Note
The Meryem Ana Bridge 2, within the bounds of Büyük Çit Village in the Torul district of Gümüşhane, near the Meryem Ana Bridge 1, stands at one of the main junctions of the northern Anatolian caravan road, built over the Çit Stream, and is a single-arched stone bridge with a two-centred pointed arch. Built using cut tuff worked in the toothed masonry technique in the arch and a rubble-fill wall technique combining rough-hewn basalt and tuff in the spandrel walls, the structure displays a plan and architectural features similar to those of the Meryem Ana Bridge 1.
