| ıt is situated on the slightly elevating slopes east of Sülo Stream, 500 m northwest of Kütüklü Village, northeast of the location named Kani Derek at Besiri District of Batman Province. It was researched within the scope of the "Palaeolithic Age Survey at the Ilisu Dam Reservoir Area" performed by H. Taskiran and M. Kartal in 2007. There are infrequently observed chipped flintstone finds. Among the surface material there are 8 cores and 17 flakes and blades. Most of the cores went through primary preparation phase. One of the classic (lineal) levallois cores is typical in terms of techno-typological aspects. Most of the cores and flakes were left without edge modification or retouch. The retouched specimens do not possess any typical characteristics. The finds place may be connected with the Mid Palaeological Age based on its general view (code: S62/33) [Taskiran-Kartal 2009:397-410]. |
