Swallowtail merlons... or provenance
#38
I took a quick look at Bodrum Castle upstairs.
It has the same architecture as on Rhodes. (crown battlements).
Seems to be a feature of the eastern Mediterranean.
Apparently the repairs to both castles were carried out from the same cultural background.
Rhodes original and after the explosion. Whereby they really exaggerated with one tower.
