Hello!

I found such a caption under a picture on wikipedia:

"Dated to 10.000 years before Christ, cave painting which alleged to could have been made to represent alien visitors." I have one doubt about this text. Shouldn´t there appear one more -i suffix after olabileceği? Because the first -i is possessive as I suppose - its (the painting´s) "could being". But when theres a direct verb used - ileri sürülen there should be accusative used, right? Like olabileceğini ileri sürülen?

#edit

Btw, why is there future participle used if the text actually refers to the past?

ileri sür|ül|mek is passive voice, that´s why the logical object is risen to the position of subject > no accusative ending.

-mış in yapılmış makes it past:

yapılmış olabileceği 

,

gokuyum, everyone can see he ment "past".

I didnt read the quote. And it misled me. But it can  mislead others too. So my warning isnt unnecessary.

SORRY.. I just corrected it now.. it´s what happens if you do two things at the same time..

It´s unnecessary now  

Anyway..thanks for warning..

You are right, gokuyum. I was joking. I noticed it myself and was about to post but you were faster. I ment it just looked like a lapsus linguae to me.

You are welcome. I deleted my warning. Peace.

A gift for you..

Good question!

I don´t have two cents at hand, but here´s my "beş kuruş":

V -il -miş ol-mak = To have been V-pp

cave painting which alleged to could have been made to represent alien visitors.

Uzaylı ziyaretçileri temsilen yapılmış olabileceği öne sürülen mağara resmi

In Turkish future tense is based on -ecek suffix which actully is used to state an intention, plan or expectation.

Yarın işe geç gideceğim = I intend (have a plan) to go to work late tomorrow

Aligiller yarın akşam bize gelecek = We expect Alis to come to us tomorow night

So if we analyse your sentence it has some expectation in it that the statement may be the case.

Other possibility would be to use -dik (i.e. non-future) participle but that doesn´t sound OK because it would have more certainty compared to -ecek participle.
