RUINS OF GREAT CITY.
Far-stretching ruins of a great city of unknown origin have been discovered in the valley of Eski-Kermen, in the very heart of the Crimean Peninsula. The ruins axe said to extend more than two miles, and consist of high fortress walls, hundreds of homes hewed out of rocks and six great cave temples, embellished with ancient frescoes. Russian archaeologists said the ruins were once the capital in the (ioths kingdom, known in history as the city of Feodora, founded during the reign of Jmtaniap the Gnat.
