Location: This mound site lies northwest of the city of Antalya; approximately 18 km northeast of the town of Kortukeli; 1 km southwest of the village of Büyüköy (also called "Büyük Ali Fahrettin Köy") and 250 m east of the Kürükini District. |
Geography and Environment: The mound; known as Efeoglu; and in some publications as Asar; lies 40 m above the level of the plain and has a 150 m diameter. Durhasan Stream flows to the east of the mound. This stream may have functioned as a water source for the inhabitants of the site. |
Destruction Details: The mound is being damaged due to agricultural activities. Its surroundings are cultivated and east and northeast parts of the mound are plowed [TAYEx 23.6.2001]. |
