| The mound lies southeast of Sanliurfa; 8.5 km northwest of Harran; southeast of Yukari Yarimca village. It is an ovoid; conical mound with rather abrupt slopes; measuring 30 m in height and 100x60 m in diameter. The mound is discovered during the 1989 Sanliurfa Survey Project conducted by a team directed by N. Yardimci. EBA finds consist of fine wares; including metallic ware and examples with reserved-slip ornament; painted wares; and plain burnished vessels with triangular lugs. It takes place in the registered archaeological sites list prepared by Ministry of Culture and Tourism. |
