A 1.82 m tall bronze statue of a Roman senator, which a fisherman accidentally found outside the Karataş lighthouse in Adana’s Karataş district, was unearthed from a depth of 5 meters in 2016 by a team of Bodrum Museum archaeologists and divers.
The historical artifact exhibited in Adana Archeology Museum is also shown as a rare artifact in its own kind. It is estimated that the statue belongs to a senator who was powerful in the administration that came to the ancient city of Magarsus during the Romans.
