Other information about the sample
- The five samples were inside a plastic container labelled “Göreme?, Cappadocia, Turchia, pittura murale. TUR/A/1 to TUR/E/1.” There is no indication of the monument. Each sample was individually labelled. ICCROM 2002 Catalogue references: TUR/A/1: Turchia, white (IC p. 33, PN 139) TUR/B/1: Turchia, Göreme, red – Gorenez Daji (TUR) (IC p. 33, PN 140) TUR/C/1: Turchia, red (IC p. 33, PN 141) TUR/D/1: Turchia, black (IC p. 33, PN 142) TUR/E/1: Turchia, yellow (IC p. 33, PN 143) It is possible that all samples come from the Göreme Valley; however, until further notice, they remain together and are classified as unknown.
