the eccentric photojournalist peter throckmorton, out of new york, arrived there in the mid-1950s after a controversial campaign where he was profiling the algerian war from the point of view of the algerian rebels fighting against french troops, which would later lead to an alleged altercation between himself and another team member, claude duthuit, who was fighting with the french. throckmorton arrived in the small city of bodrum in the southwest of turkey, built on the ancient city of halicarnassus, where the remnants of one of the ancient wonders of the world, the mausoleum at halicarnassus, can still be seen today. he had received word that a bronze statue of the greek goddess demeter was pulled up by fishing nets and left on the beach, but by the time he had arrived the statue was taken and would eventually find a home in the museum of izmir, north of bodrum.
