Chronological Tables    
Explanation: The Kestel Sarituzla Mine has a relation with the Göltepe settlement, which is located 2 km to the southeast. All AA samples of the Kestel Sarituzla Mine are AMS dates. The table does not include one AMS date (AA-3373) and two BM dates (BM-2880 and BM-2882) since they are very recent. Also, a Bryan Earl laboratory date was not published as BOT, but as Sigma 1 2858-2468 BC and Sigma 2 2784-2362 BC. The sample no. BM-2881 was obtained from the lowest layer of the trench 4 during the excavation in the Mine 1. The specimens AA-3374, AA-3375 and AA-3376 were from the 68 meters, 60 meters and 93 meters of the sounding S.2 respectively.
