| Location: The site lies southwest of Sanliurfa; south of Birecik District; approximately 700 m north-northeast of Ziyaret Village; very close to Turkey-Syria border; approximately 3.5-4 km north-northeast of Karkamis Höyügü. |
| Geography and Environment: The 610x200 m mound; located at the east side of Euphrates on rocks just beside the river; covers an area of 12.2 hectares. It is ovoid; flat; and one of the important sites around the region due to its size. 5 m thick deposit is observed at the western section. Settlers probably used the river as a water source. Building remains southeast of the site are observed to be eroded away. |
