Tekmar, a major stone quarrier and fabricator based in Istanbul, Turkey, is currently assisting in the renovation of the “Letoon Temple†by providing its material, Cremo Bello limestone. This material is being supplied with meticulous and skillful workmanship without demolishing the original ruin.
Centuries ago, the early civilizations that occupied these areas were primarily fishermen and farmers. They were well known for their occupations, traditions and culture. Approximately 2,500 years ago this group began to work with stone, and they ultimately mastered the process of stone art, thus making their place in history very significant. They sculpted the stone to make magnificent ramparts, rock tombs, monuments and other sculpted works.
