Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A series of excavations at the ancient urban site of Kultepe, Republic of Turkey, led to the better understanding of a massive public building dated to the late Early Bronze Age. In addition, the archaeological survey in the region neighbouring the site revealed a total of 124 sites across the Kayseri Province that has been hitherto terra incognita archaeologically. One of the most important discoveries among them is that we found tin-mining and working sites (Senir Sirti and Teknekaya), which contributed to reconsidering the ancient bronze production system in the Near East. A new settlement site of Ikitepe dated to the Assyrian colony period was also discovered during our survey. The Cost Distance Analysis around Kultepe on the basis of a rich geomorphological dataset suggested a new communication or trade route linking Anatolian plateau via the Mediterranean coastal regions, and Mesopotamia to the east.
