| This rock shelter which is located very near to the Elazig-Pertek motorway; about 15 km north-northeast of Elazig provincial centre has been already flooded by the waters of the Keban Dam. It has been reported that there is a small cave on the lateral surface of a rocky massif remained like an island in the middle of the dam lake; and an underlying long and narrow rock shelter. The mouths of the cave and shelter face south. No information has been provided about the dimensions of the shelter. |
