Frescoes, 9th - 11th century, in Karabas Kilise, or the Black Head Church (as the painted figures have been blackened by smoke from oil lamps), in the Soganli Valley in Goreme, in Nevsehir province, Cappadocia, Central Anatolia, Turkey. The churches in Goreme are carved from the soft volcanic tuff created by ash from volcanic eruptions millions of years ago. Early christians came here to flee persecution by the Romans and others settled here under the influence of early saints. This area forms part of the Goreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
