Paleogeographical Reconstruction and Management Challenges of an Archaeological Site Listed by UNESCO: Case of the Plain of Xanthos and Letoon (Turkey)
In the Hellenistic period, Xanthos was, according to Strabo, the largest city of Lycia (des Courtils, 2003; Bryce, 1986). It was a piece of land overlooking the deltaic plain of the Xanthe River (Bousquet et al., 1984; Fellows, 1852, 1840). A few miles downstream there was the large holy place of Letoon. The ancient Lycia is now a peninsula (Aksu et al., 2008) in southwestern Turkey. Archaeological sites of Xanthos and Letoon are on the World Heritage List of UNESCO since 1988. The historical heritage they represent results not only from a human history, but also from an environmental evolution.
