| It is located on the south part of Dardanelles; about 25 km southwest of Çanakkale; 5 km west of Intepe (Erenköy). It was discovered during the survey conducted by Aslan-Polat in 2011. A profile with a length of 40 m and height of 7 m was seen in front of the shelter on the shore at the seafront. It contains pottery sherds of which most probably belong to Chalcolithic and BA. According to preliminary observations, it is suggested that there was a mound that consists 5 archaeological levels belonging to Chalcolithic period. It is thought that the majority of the mound was submerged and the profile was destructed by the sea [Aslan-Polat 2013:7]. |
