Head of Medusa


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Head of Medusa
Head of Medusa
Taken inside Basilica Cistern, Istanbul.
There are hundreds of ancient cisterns hidden underneath the city of Istanbul. Basilica Cistern is one of the two that are open to Public. Inside the cistern, there are two column bases carved with the visage of Medusa, one of them is seen here. As per Wikipedia, the origin of the two heads is unknown, though it is thought that the heads were brought to the cistern after being removed from a building of the late Roman period.
