Premise: The Basilica Cistern (Turkish: "Yerebatan Sarnıcı – "Cistern Sinking Into Ground"" ), is the largest of several hundred ancient cisterns that lie beneath the city of Istanbul (formerly Constantinople), Turkey. The cistern, located 500 ft southwest of the Hagia Sophia on the historical peninsula of Sarayburnu, was built in the 6th century during the reign of Byzantine Emperor Justinian I.
Hypothesis: The Basilica Cistern was built more than 100 years ago.
