It lies 250-300 m east of the Burdur - Antalya highway; immediate west of Bucak District; southeast of Burdur Province. Due to the heavy cultivation continued for years; the damage is too much. It has been officially proclaimed as a registered site since it is being surrounded by modern settlements. It was discovered by M. Özsait. The EBA material recovered is very poor. The site was named as Höyük Çeltikçi by D. French and this may be the fact that Korfmann gave two different site numbers to these settlements. It takes place in the registered archaeological sites list prepared by Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
