Archaeologists In Turkey Discovered An Ancient Gate To Hell

Monday, March 25, 2013 15:56

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Bad horror movies have taught us a lot over the years: If you hear a strange noise in the woods, don’t go investigating on your own, especially if you’re a hot girl in your underwear; don’t have sex if you’re a teenager, it’s a surefire way to get yourself whacked; don’t go digging around ancient Indian burial grounds and try not to be a black man—you’ll be among the first to go.

Also, if you find a gate to hell, don’t open it.

That last one shouldn’t really need repeating, but apparently it does. News last week from the Italian newswire Agenzia Nazionale Stampa Associata (ANSA) revealed that Italian archaeologists working in the ancient Phrygian city of Hierapolis, in modern-day Turkey, discovered the city’s ancient “Gate to the Underworld.” Cue up the Lovecraftian horror fantasies, and…. go.

Always neat to find gates to hell. Many exist supposedly. Thoughts? -Mort

I was brought up on Star Trek, it didn’t miss my attention that on missions the unknown security guard always coped it first. Lesson one, don’t be a unknown security guard…

Being afraid of outside in the dark, a crypt or graveyard has got to be the most childish thing I’ve heard on BiN to date… how sweet do you still have a night light to ward off the monsters under your bed

The only thing we have to fear is ourselves and our own stupidity.

The ‘underworld’ of the ancient world is in no way connected with the state of consciousness known as hell.

The gates of hell are what happens when you decide to obey liberals. They are the way of death and suffering and human misery.

The first liberals were Adam & Eve. The last noted ones are all you current phonies running this country.

… and fear itself.

@Mort, loved the wry sense of humour, but you still allow your readers to think you are writing this stuff. Don’t you ‘Reporters’ work by some sort of code?

You and Maveprick are great ones to criticize yet you never have written an Article.
Go ahead, if you think you have the better smarts, we even allow you the same code of ethics.
Go make my day Sheila.

I’m surprised they didn’t use the catacombs in France for this article… Just saying.
