It is a flat conic hill in the field lying to the east of the Yalman Village, north of the main Aksaray-Acigöl motorway. It was previously visited by the Japanese team at Kaman Kalehöyük. It lies near to the western edge of the flat plain expanding toward Acigöl by descending while coming from Aksaray. Limited number of sherds collected from the surface mainly indicates Iron Age and after except only a red-painted sherd which may be dated to the Bronze Age. |
