High up in the Taurus Mountains, about 50 kilometers north of Aspendos, lies the village of Altinkaya Köyü and the dramatic ruins of Selge.
It's said that the town was founded by the blind prophet Kalchas of the Trojan War with the rest of his army from Troy.
Until the Roman period, the settlement's remote location protected the town from foreign rule, yet trade flourished thanks to good relations with the towns of coastal Pamphylia.
