It is situated 1 km south of the Nergis Village to the north of the road between Karatas and Kesik, southeast of Adana. Discovery of a sherd of a fruit stand on the surface of the mound indicates presence of an EBA phase III settlement. Also found are sherds dating to the Hittite, Roman and Islamic Periods [Seton-Williams 1954:165-166]. |
