| This site is in 12 km Northeast of Özvatan Suburb of Kayseri City, and in 2 km Northeast of Yeni Mahalle Locality on a natural rock bed. It is documented during the survey carried out by F. Kulakoğlu in 2009. Terraces exist on the natural hill on the South slope. Iron Age and Roman Period potteries are worth noting among the few potteries found on the surface. Few pieces from Early Bronze Age are also captured [Kulakoğlu et al. 2011: 413-414]. |
