Slab allocation

A Turk searching for the family of a Greek woman buried beneath his house

It was discovered in the summer of 2017: a marble slab with an inscription in Greek, embedded in the concrete floor, beneath the old tiles being replaced by two cousins in their grandparents' home in Karacakoy, northwest of Istanbul. "All we could make out was the date," one of the cousins, Kerem Soyyilmaz, tells Kathimerini. He took a photo of the slab and sent it to a Greek friend.
