Also, the famous Madaba map that shows anicent Isreal sites was correct where the street was. The ma is in a Byzantine Church in Madada.

Its more of the older Bascilia design.(sorry for misspelling). I believe that the Turks don’t have the interest for this. But even in Istantibul, there are lots of ruin buildings from Byzantine times or earlier which are apart of the new subway system, and some interesting things have been discovered like ships from the 300’s. I can understand in their own country why they would prefer the subway to collecting all the old ruins. Anyway, Cyprus doesn’t appear to be much interest to them when it comes to old ruins. This is my rule, if modern buildings or instructure are not built on top of ruins, then you should try to preserve them.
