It is a stepped flat settlement; located on the southern bank of the Murat Suyu; northeast of the Karatas rock shelter; north-northeast of Elazig Province [Kökten 1974: pl.6/ pic.1-2]. The northern part lies on the southern slope of a high rocky hill. The eastern and western parts are surrounded by smaller rocks. A trench of 2x6 m opened in 1971 by K. Kökten yielded finds all dating from the EBA [Kökten 1974:pl.28-29]. Only a few sherds was published. It is reported that no other industry other than the industry of EBA was revealed. There are sherds decorated with incisions and excisions. |
