The Bridge near Seydikemer was a Roman segmental arch bridge near the ancient city of Xanthos in Lycia, in modern-day southwestern Turkey. Its remains are located on the upper reaches of the Xanthos river (Koca Çayı), 4 km upstream from the town of Seydikemer, at a site where the gravel river bed reaches a width of 500 m. Only a 29 m long and 4.5 m wide section on the right river bank, outside the inundation zone, is left today, having once served as approach to the bridge proper. Despite its near-complete destruction, the bridge represents a noteworthy example of the early use of segmental arches and hollow chambers in bridge building.

  • Die Brücke bei Kemer war eine römische Brücke über den Fluss Xanthos (den heutigen Eşen Çayı) in Lykien in der heutigen Südwesttürkei. Die Reste des Bauwerks befinden sich 4 km flussaufwärts vom Dorf Kemer an einer Stelle, wo das kiesbedeckte Flusstal des Xanthos eine Breite von 500 m erreicht. Von dem Bauwerk steht nur noch ein 29 m langes und 4,5 m breites Teilstück, das sich auf dem rechten Flussufer außerhalb der Überschwemmungszone befindet und als Auffahrt für die eigentliche Flussbrücke gedient hat (Stand 1978). Baugeschichtlich ist die Brücke trotz weitgehender Zerstörung durch ihre Segmentbögen und Hohlkammern von Bedeutung. (de)

  • Il Ponte vicino a Seydikemer era un ponte romano che si trovava accanto all'antica città di Xanthos in Licia, nell'odierna Turchia sud-occidentale. Le sue rovine si trovano sul corso superiore del fiume Xanthos (Koca Çayı), circa 4 km a monte della città di Seydikemer, in un punto in cui il letto del fiume costituito da ghiaia, raggiunge una larghezza di 500 m. Ad oggi rimane solo un tratto lungo 29 m. e largo 4,5 m., sulla sponda destra del fiume e fuori dalla zona di allagamento, che un tempo fungeva da accesso al ponte vero e proprio. Nonostante sia rimasto ben poco, il ponte rappresenta ancora un esempio degno di nota dell'uso precoce di archi segmentati e camere cave nella costruzione di ponti antichi. (it)
