| This cave is in Okçular Village of Cide Suburb of Kastamonu City and inside a significant rock bulge overlooking the sea over Cide Coastline. It was documented during the survey carried out in 2010 by B. During and C. Glatz. Chalcolithic and EBA potteries as well as post-Classic Period potteries are encountered in the cave. These findings are gathered from an accumulation near illicit excavations. This is the most important finding location for proto- and pre-historic Cide unearthed to date [During-Glatz 2011:191-192]. |
