The isomeric ratios energy dependence in the $^{124}$Te($γ$,n)$^{123m,g}$Te reaction for the 10-22 MeV range of photons maximum energy has been studied. The cross-sections of the metastable state $J^{π}=11/2^{-}$ excitation of the $^{123}$Te isotope have been obtained. The experimental results are compared with the TALYS-1.2 calculations.
