History[edit | edit source]

1th century AC[edit | edit source]

  • Jesus Christ was crucified on Beykoz Mountain = Golgotha in 1185, on the Asian shore of the Bosphorus. Nearby are situated ruins of the original, i.e. Biblical Jerusalem, which was also called Yoros. On the shore of the strait, slightly to the south, is situated modern Istanbul.

2nd century AC[edit | edit source]

  • The 'ancient' temples and shrines dedicated to Andronicus-Christ were erected. Bloody sacrifices would take place there, among them, quite possibly, human ones.

7th century AC[edit | edit source]

Turks resting on Beykoz mountain

The picture shows an old painting, apparently from the 1700-1800, depicting the Turks resting on Beykoz mountain close to 'the grave of holy Jesus (Yusha or Yusa)'. The undoubtable focal point of the whole composition is the picturesque remains of an imposing age-old fortress. It stands on the very shore of the Bosphorus on a hill next to Beykoz. The impressive ruins of the old Yoros fortress survive to this day.
