I was very excited when I first heard that the series was related to ancient history, especially Göbeklitepe and Nemrut. Luckily, I had an opportunity to visit these mystical and historical places when the series started and I was very impressed visiting and learning the unknown aspects of the ancient time in Anatolia.
First of all, I started to watch the series thinking that there is a high chance of being crushed under the influence and size of these special places. Göbeklitepe, referred to as the zero point of history by historians and Nemrut, the mountain of gods, where mystery is still not fully understood. However, the script and the cast manages to stick you in your seat. It is necessary to congratulate Sengül Boybas with her first book (The Awakening of the World). She caused the series to exist and contributed significantly to the script. I think that Mehmet Günsür, one of the leading actors of the series, is the biggest chance of the Atiye (The Gift) because of his interest in ancient history and mysticism. He had previously been involved in similar projects.
I think the other characters in the series have been carefully selected and formed a good team. Hopefully next season will be an accelerating success graph.
Thanks Netflix and the contributors.
