This site lies northwest of Harmankaya Village; approximately 4 km southeast of Karamanli District; southwest of the city of Burdur. It is 100x200 m in dimensions and 10 m in height. The site was discovered by S. Lloyd and J. Mellaart. An extreme damage was observed. Painted and monochrome ceramics; resembling the sherds of Kuruçay and Hacilar; were found by M. Özsait at the northeast parts of the site in 1981. The paste is made of thin clay. Small vessels are dominant. According to Özsait; Çamur Höyük exposes the distribution of the culture of Hacilar. |
