Scope and Content Part of a series of images from the survey 1902-1906 carried out by F.W. Hasluck at Cyzicus and surrounding territory in Anatolia, under the auspices of the British School at Athens. The original description in the SPHS register reads: "Granikos valley: remains of Roman bridge (Ak-Küprü)".
Notes Probably taken between 1902 and 1906 by Hasluck when he states he was involved with the site and territory of Cyzicus in his 1910 monograph (Cyzicus: Being Some Account of the History and Antiquities of that City, Cambridge: CUP).
