A new detail has come to light with respect to the Turkish army’s recent relocation of the tomb of Suleyman Shah in Syria.

The Turkish armed forces, together with the local Kurdish militants, have transferred the remains of Suleyman Shah—the forebear of Osman I, the founder of the Ottoman Empire—to the Eshme region on the Turkish border, reported Agos Armenian bilingual weekly of Istanbul.

It was found out, however, that the place where the Turks have begun building a new mausoleum for Suleyman Shah had been on the “death” path of the Armenians in 1915; that is, it was through this area that hundreds of thousands of Armenians were taken to their death in the deserts of Deir ez-Zor.
