| Location: This site lies 3 km west of the city of Yalova; approximately 1 km north of the village of Samanli; on the east-northeastern extension of the Baltaçiftligi natural outcrop. |
| Geography and Environment: The site is 800 m from the Marmara Sea. Ceramic fragments were found on the field in the east-southeastern part of Göztepe; a sand dune. The site has been destroyed by sand extraction and the construction of water canals. The inhabitants of this site must have used Samanli Stream; east of Göztepe; for water. |
| Destruction Details: The southern and southeastern skirts of the settlement are being planted. A road passes from the south and there are prefabricated earthquake houses to the south of it. The skirts of the settlement have been cut by the road and the houses [TAYEx 18.7.2000]. |
