| It is located in Bozan Village; north of Dazkiri; 103 km southwest of Afyonkarahisar Province. It was discovered by J. Mellaart; and introduced as an EBA II settlement by D.H. French. Almost half of the mound has been demolished to meet the soil requirements as a construction material for the nearby road construction. The village houses on the northwestern part have partially destroyed the mound. It is not included in the major settlements of the region. It was visited during the survey carried out by Ö. Koçak and his team in 2015. It measures 140x160 m and 9 m high. It extends in the northwest-southeast direction. The potsherds dating to Chalcolithic, EBA and Roman Period were collected from the surface [Koçak et al. 2017:239]. It takes place in the registered archaeological sites list prepared by Ministry of Culture and Tourism. |
