| The mound lies 2.7 km north of Dedeyolu (Yukarihuh) Village of Sivrice District; south of Elazig. Sivrice-Baskil railroad passes 200 m southwest of the mound. West of the mound is Dedepinari Village; north is Kavaktepe Village. The 30 m high; medium mound with a diameter of 50 m lies on the southeastern section of Altinova. It is first discovered by C.A. Burney and presented as mainly an EBA settlement. H.F. Russell; who later on has analyzed the sherds collected by Burney; has distinguished dark faced burnished ware and wheel-made chaff-faced ware sherds. The dark faced burnished ware sherds date probably to Late Chalcolithic Age. |
