| It is located between the Asar Hill and a water resource; west of the Kayis Village; 27 km south of the Burdur Province. Probably there was a shrine and similar buildings related with water. Most of the stone finds dating to the Roman Period were removed to Kayis. Among them is a square altar which bears a horseman relief. Intense tiles and bricks identified under the ground during the geophysical studies carried out under the direction of B. Music in 2005 suggested the presence of many kilns in that area. It is likely that pots and tile and bricks should have been produced in a villa settlement presumed to have been built here. It is uncertain if the settlement is dated to before or after the Roman Period. |
