The place where Homer taught his students

 

"The teachers stone" at the foot of mount epos is where Homer taught his students. On top of the rock a stone is carved out and rises about 1 m. above the plateau.

 

 

The plateau is believed to be a sanctuary of the goddess Cybele, who was worshipped by the Phyrgians. Today it gives a awesome view on the sea and Asia Minor.
