It was researched within the scope of " Adana (Ceyhan) and Kayseri (Develi) Surveys" performed by S. Girginer et al. in 2005. It is an approximately 10 m high mound bearing two adjacent hills 5.2 km west of Çatakli Village. It is also known as Ikizhöyük. There is an irrigation canal that passes approximately 200 m north of the mound. That canal was built by the rehabilitation of the old bank of Ceyhan River. In addition to the obsidian and silex production remains; and amulet; there are Chalcolithic; EBA; 2nd millenium BC; and Roman-Byzantien periods [Girginer 2007:178]. |
