| It is a large mound with a flat top lying at the entrance of the Kurtkulagi Valley, 1 km south of Ceyhan, east of the provincial center of Adana. It has been heavily destroyed due to cultivation. The surface finds were evaluated by M.V. Seton-Williams, who reported that the site had been inhabited during the Iron Age, Roman and Byzantine Periods as well as the Chalcolithic Age based on the sherds [Seton-Williams 1954:156]. It takes place in the registered archaeological sites list prepared by Ministry of Culture and Tourism. |
