| The site lies southeast of Bilecik; 11 km east of Bozüyük; close to and north of the road from Bozüyük to Eskisehir. In the 1990 survey conducted by T. Efe; few sherds are collected from the surface of this natural hill. The cut-stone blocks found in the pit dug illicitly in the middle of the hill have brought up the possibility that the hill was a tumulus. The Chalcolithic Age and Classical Period sherds recovered from the surface may have been secondary finds in the possibly transported soil for covering the tumulus. It is therefore a question if the site is a Chalcolithic Age settlement or not. |
