Rock cut tombs, Lycia

Müller travelled to Asia Minor in September 1843. He had been recommended to go to Lycia by the archaeologist Sir Charles Fellowes (1799-1860) who had recently returned and invited Müller to accompany his fourth expedition to Turkey. Müller travelled there independently accompanied by his pupil Harry John Johnson (1826-1884), meeting Fellowes' expedition on 22 October 1843 at Xanthus. He stayed there for three months, drawing the local scenery extensively.
