Location: This site lies 18.5 km southeast of the city of Adiyaman; approximately 500 km south of the village of Miroglu; near the village of Kilisik; on the Kalburcu Stream and 500 m northeast of the Arif Hoca Windmill. The site has since been completely destroyed by the dam lake. The survey code of the site is T 50 / 4.
Geography and Environment: Palaeolithic tools were found among post-classical ruins on a gravel terrace by the Kalburcu Stream. The site is known as Miroglu. It has been split into two by a gully. The discovery of these finds was coincidental.
Destruction Details: The site is flooded by dam reservoir today [TAYEx 29.8.2001].
