It expands to an area of 8.6 acres in the Torbali District of Izmir. A 5-6 m thick cultural deposit was observed. At the summit of the mound lies a flat ground of 70x50 m which yielded only ceramics from the Roman Period and Middle Age while material which prove that the settlement had been inhabited starting from the First Chalcolithic, continously throughout the Bronze and Iron Ages were collected from the skirts [Tuna 1988:305]. It takes place in the registered archaeological sites list prepared by Ministry of Culture and Tourism. |
