Location: It lies approximately 200 m north of Baspinar-Çavdir road; northwest of Baspinar Village; 2 km southeast of Karamusa Village; south-southeast of Tefenni District of Burdur. Immediate east of the site there is a well spring called Kirkgöz. |
Geography and Environment: This mound; discovered by M. Özsait; is continually eroding. The mound lies beside the spring at the northern skirts of 1;666 m high Mount Düvenkaya. The current height of the mound is 5 m Özsait notes that there was continuous habitation at the site from the Late Neolithic Period on through to the Iron Age. In the photography published with the survey report; the mound appears to be small and flat looking. |
Destruction Details: The mound is being damaged due to agricultural activities. It is cultivated and probably has lost its height because of plowing [TAYEx 14.6.2001]. |
