| This site is 2 km the South of Aşağı Boğaz Village of İmranlı Suburb of Sivas City. It was surveyed by A. Engin in 2009. It is a large hill settlement and approximately 300 by 250 m in size. The settlement is much higher than the valley base and on a dominant position over the valley. Kızılırmak River is flowing from the Southern Slope of the hill. The Western boundary of the settlement is set by the İmranlı Water Reservoir. Among the captured findings on the surface are materials from EBA, 2nd Millennium BC and Iron Age [Engin 2011:91]. |
