| Location: The site of Çukurkent lies close to the Beysehir-Sarkikaraagaç highway; 28-29 km northwest of the town of Beysehir; west of the city of Konya. It locates on a field in Bozyer Mevkii; 1 km away from Çukurkent Village; between the villages of Kireli and Yeniköy. |
| Geography and Environment: The information provided on the location of the site is limited. It is very close to the northwestern shore of Beysehir Lake. On Mellaart's map; the site is located on a flat area by the slopes of the Görünmez Mountains extending towards Beysehir Lake. Mellaart does not mention on what side of Çukurkent; the village the site is named after; this open-air site is located on. The finds were collected from a well-plowed field. |
