Lonely Planet review for Archaeology Museum

Diyarbakır's Archaeology Museum was closed at the time of writing for refurbishment, but scheduled to reopen in 2012. Ask at the Diyarbakır tourist office for an update.

Before renovation, the well-presented collection included finds from the Neolithic site of Çayönü (7500–6500 BC), 65km north of Diyarbakır. Also showcased was a decent Urartian collection and relics from the Karakoyunlu and Akkoyunlu, powerful tribal dynasties that ruled much of eastern Anatolia and Iran between 1378 and 1502.
