The mounds lie 1 km northwest of Boyali Village; south of Boyabat District; south of Sinop Province. To the southeast flows the Karasu stream. They were discovered in 1998 during a survey conducted by M.A. Isin. Ikiztepe I lies next to the road and measures 150x100x10 m. Materials of the EBA; MBA and the Late Iron Age were collected from the surface. Ikiztepe II lies 50-70 m northeast of the other mound and measures 130x100x10 m. Materials of the EBA; the Hellenistic and Roman Periods were collected from the surface. It is suggested that this is a double cored settlement. |
