It lies on the Evrese road; east of the Karasu (Evrese) Stream; southwest of Sinop Province. It stands on a natural hill positioned downhill near the bottom of the valley. It was investigated by a team under O. Doonan in 1998-99. It has been destroyed by bulldozer during the construction of a ditch. EBA and MBA pottery was collected from this ditch. It measures ca. 50 m in diameter. There are pits on the surface. Fragments of two figurines belonging to EBA were recovered [Doonan et al. 2001:fig.11]. EBA pottery recovered is reported to be the typical EBA material of the region. |
