As Ruínas da Montanha Nemrut estão localizadas dentro dos limites da Vila Büyüköz de Pütürge e do Distrito de Kahta, em Adıyaman (sudeste da Turquia). Os túmulos e esculturas monumentais construídos pelo Rei Antíoco I de Commagene nas encostas do Monte Nemrut, que tem 2.150 metros de altura, para demonstrar sua gratidão aos deuses e ancestrais, são uma das relíquias mais magníficas do Período Helenístico. As esculturas monumentais estão espalhadas pelos terraços leste, oeste e norte. As gigantescas esculturas bem preservadas são feitas de blocos de calcário e têm entre 8 e 10 metros de altura. Um reino independente foi estabelecido por Mitrídates I na região, que era chamada de Commagene na antiguidade. O reino ganhou importância durante o período de seu filho Antíoco I (62-32 a.C.). A independência do reino chegou ao fim após a guerra contra Roma ser perdida em 72 d.C.

O cume do Monte Nemrut não é um assentamento; é o túmulo e as áreas sagradas de Antíoco. O túmulo está em um ponto com vista para as passagens do rio Eufrates e as planícies. O túmulo, com 50 metros de altura e 150 metros de diâmetro, onde os ossos ou cinzas do rei foram colocados em uma sala escavada na rocha, foi protegido cobrindo-o com pequenos fragmentos de rocha. Embora esteja mencionado nas inscrições que o túmulo do rei está aqui, ele ainda não foi descoberto. Há estátuas de Antíoco, deuses e deusas, além de esculturas de leões e águias nos terraços leste e oeste. Há um horóscopo de leão único no terraço oeste. As esculturas foram esculpidas misturando a arte helenística, persa e a arte original do País de Commagene. Nesse sentido, o Monte Nemrut pode ser considerado a ponte entre as civilizações ocidental e oriental.

Com o desaparecimento do Reino de Commagene do palco da história, as obras no Monte Nemrut foram deixadas sozinhas por cerca de dois mil anos. Em 1881, o engenheiro alemão Karl Sester, que estava em serviço na região, encontrou as estátuas do Monte Nemrut e informou o Cônsul Alemão em Izmir, confundindo as ruínas do Reino de Commagene e as inscrições gregas atrás dos pedestais onde as estátuas dos deuses estavam colocadas, pensando que eram ruínas assírias. Karl Sester cometeu esse erro, empolgado por descobrir as esculturas gigantes. Em 1882, Otto Puchstein e Karl Sester realizaram um estudo em Nemrut. Osman Hamdi Bey, o Diretor do Museu Imperial, veio com uma equipe em 1883 e trabalhou em Nemrut. A arqueóloga americana Theresa Goell e o alemão Karl Doerner conduziram escavações, pesquisas e estudos em Nemrut e sua região após a Segunda Guerra Mundial.
