| The mound lies northwest of Diyarbakir; south-southeast of Ergani; on the east bank of Bogazçay; in Bereketli (Zengetil) village. It is discovered during the 1988 Diyarbakir Survey Project conducted by M. Özdogan and Halaf-Ubaid Transition Period sherds are recovered from the surface. On the other hand Özdogan has concluded that during the Ergani Plain Survey; Halaf ware sherds were recovered in only two settlements; namely Çayönü and Yayvan Tepe/Til Huzur; one sherd in each; however; that; such pottery sherds increased to the southern regions. |
