In June 2011 I paid another visit to this most important museum. I had improved equipment compared to earlier visits, with in particular a wider ISO-range, some displays had been improved, some things were worse. I took many pictures of things I have shown before repeatedly, trying to improve on some. In particular I could show more realistic colours of some of the amazing Hittite stone work.

In September 2011 I found the museum was being renovated, the orthostats area had been invaded by exhibits from elsewhere, as a result it was much more crowded.

I will later (may take a month) try and sort these pictures with the main gallery on this subject, comparing and adding captions as I go along. For the time being the purpose of this gallery is to show what's "new".

People who know my method will not be surprised to find how I often repeat pictures from slightly different angles. An extreme case is the Hittite vase, called the İnandık vase. I found there are many reflections of different sources of light with different colours. So I post-edited the same pictures to get rid of some artefacts, probably introducing new ones.
