Location: This site is located 16 km south of the city of Antakya; on the terrace of the district of Pinarbasi; east of the Antakya-Yayladag highway and near the town of Senköy. There appear to be two different areas where the artifacts were concentrated; as shown on the map in Minzoni-Deroche's site report. It is very probable that one of these artifact scatters is the site described by Bostanci.
Geography and Environment: The mountainous municipality of Senköy is reported to be abundant in rock-shelters and caves and is rich in Palaeolithic chipped stone finds.
