Story
Gordion Tümülüs I is a funerary monument in Ankara's Polatlı district associated with Phrygian culture. Its tumulus type and location are recorded, but an eighth-century BCE date, palace remains, a connection to Midas, stonework, and an interpretation of the site as a trade center are not verified in the available sources. Visitors can observe the mound's form, its distance from other tumuli nearby, and its place in the Gordion landscape. No definite interpretation of the burial chamber or finds should be made without explanatory information at the site.
