| Location: This site is located southeast of the city of Kahramanmaras. It lies south of the Aksu River; north of the road between the Totolar nomad encampment and the Camizoglu Farm. |
| Geography and Environment: The site lies in the fertile soil watered by the Aksu River. No other geographical/geological information has been provided. |
| History: |
| Research and Excavation: This site was discovered during the surface survey led by E. Carter in the Kahramanmaras Region in 1993. |
| Stratigraphy: |
| Small Finds: The site yielded two biface handaxes. The artifact densities and number of finds recovered have so far been unreported. Similar chipped stone tools have been found at Latmene in Syria [Carter 1995:333]. In their report on the Palaeolithic site SAK 14; Garrard et al. mention that Carter's survey in this region yielded Acheuléen finds [Garrard et al. 1996:59]. |
