Cappadocia which was the population zone of the Assyrian civilization has hosted the Hittite, Frig, Pers, Byzantine, Seljuk, and Ottoman civilizations. The first Christians who escaped from the persecution of the Roman Empire in the 2nd century B.C. came to the Cappadocia over the Antakya and Kayseri and settled here. The first Christians finding the underground cities from Cappadocia have been hidden in these underground cities whose gates were made in such a way in which they couldn’t be easily observed and they have escaped from the persecution of the Roman soldiers. Due to that, they had live in the underground cities for a long duration without being able to go out they have developed these underground cities by making provisions rooms, ventilation chimneys, wine production places, churches, abbeys, water wells, toilets, and meeting rooms.
