| The site; which yielded obsidian finds; lies at Çukuryer Mevkii; west of Acigöl and east of Mount Kiziltepe; 2.2 km west of the village of Gösterli; east-northeast of the city of Aksaray. Bunus was discovered by N. Balkan-Atli in 1996 during her 1996 survey of workshops and ateliers in this region. The researcher collected cores with single and opposed striking platforms; crested blades; flakes; scrapers and splinter pieces. This site is believed to be an Aceramic Neolithic habitation site/atelier. |
