Description: Local Information: Southwest Transect Field 33 Latitude: 37.41.07.76 Longitude: 28.41.39.30 Elevation: 522m Dimensions: 70m x 70m Description: In a recently harvested wheat field and in a fallow area south of it is the site of a possible farmstead. The tile and ceramic scatter extends over a roughly 70 x 70m square surrounding a large pile of broken stones, where several worked blocks are visible. Petit apparail blocks and other roughly worked blocks are also incorporated into a ruined farmhouse to the northwest of the field; the farmhouse is chinked with brick and pan tile fragments. The pottery collected suggests that here the occupation roughly matched that of the urban occupation at Aphrodisias, possibly with an emphasis on the earlier period (Late Hellenistic to Early Imperial). Finds: Systematic pottery collection on 5/24/2008
