Geography and Environment: Hakemi Use Tepe consists of two adjacent mounds. The second mound which was partially destructed due to the agriculture is located approximately 200 m east from the first mound named "Hakemi Use I" where the excavations are performed. This settlement which is almost unnoticed due to the cotton plantation above; measures approximately 80 m in diameter. The settlement known as "Hakemi Use II" contains ceramics of Medieval Ages Period above. The inhabitants of this second settlement apparently used the mound of Hakemi Use I as a cemetery [Tekin 2008:1]. |
