It is located next to the Zeytinli Train Station on the Tarsus-Adana railway, 17 km west from the provincial center of Adana. It is one of the large mounds with terraces on its slopes, and a flat hilltop. It is 20 m high. Sherds collected from the surface during the Cilicia Survey conducted in 1951 were dated from the EBA until the Hellenistic Period [Seton-Williams 1954:131-174]. |
