Palaeolithic Age finds were collected at eight points at this location near Küçük Göllü Mountain during the survey performed by N. Atli et al. in 2007. A total of 59 finds were found dispersed and distant from each other. But their presence suggest Palaeolithic camping sites at this section of the mountain. Besides the Mid Palaeolithic finds some Lower Palaeolithic finds were also collected (biface, cleaver). Other finds consist of a small amount of levallois cores and flakes [Balkan-Atli et al. 2009:332]. |
