It is a very exciting moment when something form ancient times are unearthed. Turkey is a country where you can live this excitement. Still today it is possible to unearth some items from ancient period by chance. It can be a construction project or an infrastructure project. A similar event became true in northern Blacksea region of Turkey.

Within an infrastructure project, a metropole site was unearthed. That site remained from Roman period. Also the archeaologists discovered valuable personal items from that site such as a ring that figured Hermes. Like Dionysos cult, Hermes cult was also popular in Roman society.
