(Hürriyet Newspaper, 30 July 2023)













                          "Dig We Must!"...but why?

The villagers in Kovucak village in Bolu province are quite curious about
a mysterious excavation being undertaken by miners brought from 
Zonguldak and under the supervision of the Bolu public prosecutor.  The
villagers say that "there's gold and treasure there. No one is allowed to 
get close."  Previously, a sarcophagus grave was unearthed in the region.

The excavation, using heavy equipment, began in April in Kovucak village
of Bolu's Mudurnu district, on the basis of an investigation secretly 
undertaken by the Bolu public prosecutor.  After a month of work, in May
15 miners from the Zonguldak Üzülmez Facility Directorate of the Turkey
Coal Council were brought to the area.  The miners went underground and
began to dig, supported by air conditioning and generator systems.  After
two months of digging, the miners have dug many meters into the ground.



















               They're as "in the dark" as the miners.

This mysterious excavation, being done in great secrecy, is continuing, and
the Gendarmerie has taken strict measures to ensure that no one approaches
the excavation site, including the owner of land (!).   It is said that the miners
must surrender their cellphones before entering the excavation each morning.
In addition, no one from the Bolu Provincial Culture, Tourism and Museum
Directorate is involved in the project. 

There has been no official announcement regarding the target of the 
excavation, although villagers say that many people have come to the area
in recent years to dig and search for treasure.  Villager Mehmet Kapucu
stated that "it's said there is gold and treasure there but they won't let us
get near it."
