Location: This site is southwest of the city of Adiyaman at the top of a 780 m high hill between the village of Iznik (also known as Hiznik); which is about 7 km northeast of the town of Çakirhöyük (previously called Keysun) and the village of Fal (Kutluca); 5 km to the northeast. |
Geography and Environment: We lack further geographical and environmental descriptions of the site. Archaeological publications have also referred to the site as Keysun after the town; although this name is incorrect. |
