Detail of a quarry-face in the Bacakale Quarry, Iscehisar.
The Bacakale Quarry is the largest quarry at Iscehisar (ancient Dokimeion) and the focus of modern activity at the site. Both white and coloured marble are extracted here, the latter a white-cream breccia with purple veins (pavonazzetto). Pavonazzetto is visible in the vertical section of this quarry-face.
