Cape Jason

Cape Jason (Turkish: Yason Burnu; (Ancient Greek: Ιάσων or Ἰασώνιον, romanized: Iason or Iasonion; Latin: Iasonium or Jasonium) is a cape located at Çaytepe / Çaka (officially Aziziye) villages, Perşembe (formerly Vona) district, Ordu Province, Turkey (the North East Shores of Turkey).

Cape Jason harkens back to ancient times when a temple of Jason stood at the edge of the sea, protecting the sailors of Black Sea's treacherous waters.

It now sits in total solitude in an overgrown cornfield next to a lighthouse overlooking the roaring waves of the Pontus.

Cape Jason Natural and Archeological Site is on the borders of Çaytepe village in Perşembe county, on a small peninsula facing the sea.

Ancient ports and fish breeding pools can also still be seen today.
