Its story

Keraitai is an ancient settlement in the Çere area near Belören in Bucak. The name of the city, inhabited in the Hellenistic and Roman periods, does not appear in ancient writers; its identity has been deduced from epigraphic finds such as inscriptions. Today there is no modern settlement on the site, and the remains are scattered across the terrain. Together with nearby Kremna, it is a complementary stop for those who want to understand the network of Pisidian cities around the Aksu valley.
