Location: The site lies east of Diyarbakir; between Bismil and Batman. It is located 2.1 km away from Yukarisalat while going towards Salat; immediately northeast of the dirt road. Abdullahin Düzü is not shown on the 1:100000 Mardin M 45 map. Salat Stream joins with Tigris without meander; on Algaze's map. |
Geography and Environment: The 1-2 m high; round and broad mound; 100 m in diameter; is located on the eastern bank of Salat Stream; on the northern bank of Tigris; close to the junction of Salat Stream and Tigris; above the lower terrace of overflowing plain of Tigris.
