It is situated in the Iskenderun Gulf of Hatay. It was investigated by G. Lehmann et al. in 2006. It was dated to LBA, Hellenistic and Roman periods [Lehmann et al. 2008:176]. Several concentrations of artifacts are scattered over the hill. Part of the site is ploughed but other parts are not cultivated. Building stones with a diameter of 20-50 cm are concentrated here. Some of the pottery seems to date to teh Bronze Age [Lehmann et al. 2008:177]. |
