Location: This site lies at Harim/Köybolugu Mevkii; very close to the village of Hasanlar; north of Nevsehir Province. It is on the Nevsehir-Kirsehir city border.
Geography and Environment: Although the dimensions of the mound have not been provided; from the photo in the publication it is clear that the mound is middle-sized and broad mound. In Omura's publication; the site is referred to as Hassanlar; although in the map; the name of the village appears to be Hasanlar (Avanos 1:200;000). The site name chosen here is the name given by the survey director. The mound lies in the flat area known as Çerçiçölü; where Lake Seyfe is located. The inhabitants of this site could have used Kolaycik Stream as their water supply. Nearby; there is another small seasonal stream. The swamps near the mound may have functioned as hunting grounds for the inhabitants of the site.
