    Historic monuments built in Binguli Kig region of Turkey in 1800s are
    being eliminated. St. Hovannes church in Eskikavak village (Areg) is
    still waiting to be reconstructed, Hay Tert reports citing Turkish
    Radikal.

    Binguli's historic establishments are being eliminated one by one.
    Hundreds of buildings of the region have remained alone against nature
    disasters and robbers.

    St. Hovannes church is one of the 45 churches belonging to Armenians
    in Kig left to the mercy of fate.

    The Armenian church built in 1800s has remained standing till now
    despite bad conditions but it needs urgent repair.

    In Binguli the historic monuments are vanishing one by one. The
    researchers are damaging the ancient sites belonging to Roman, Urartu
    and other civilizations
