| The site is located on the road to Küçük Altiagaç village; 1 km west of Büyük Altiagaç village; which is about 8 km south of Meriç district in Edirne province. The site is located in the middle of a plain area; immediately west of Bostandere stream; which flows in the north-south direction. At a point close to the middle of the sunflower field; there is tomb with a plane tree on it. The settlement is believed to be continuing to the bank of the stream on the east. In 1992; a surface collection was conducted by a team under the directorship of M. Özdogan and in 1997 the site was researched again during the surveys conducted in the region by B. Erdogu. The site has yielded finds; which are accepted to be contemporary with Chalcolithic and the materials from Asagi Pinar 6 and Karanova in the Balkans. |
