dc.descriptionLocal Information: The site is in Haci's field; Recep Topal and Muhammet Cetintaş took us there. On day of sherding, the owner of field came by and stated that he had built the field to the east two years ago and in the process had leveled eastern end of settlement.en_US

dc.descriptionDescription: The site, located northwest of the village of Ataköy on the north side of the valley, sits atop a low ridge, which is now just to the west of a modern dam. Fields on its east, south, and west sides cut partly into the ancient site. The western slope is fairly steep, but the others are gentle. Four structures survive from the ancient settlement spread over an area approximately 110 m by 40 m. The largest structure is at the north end of the settlement and appears to have had at least nine rooms arranged along the northeast and southeast sides of a roughly square courtyard. The walls were built of schist and are about 0.80m thick. Isolated at the southern end of the site is a second large structure, perhaps the foundations for a tower. ** A crushing basin and counterweight block are found at the north edge of the site, located north of the first large structure, but a slight rise in the ground around the blocks suggests they may have been inside a building. It is likely that the crushing basin has remained in situ, because its well-preserved rim is still level and the basin is approximately two-thirds buried in the ground. The counterweight block, however, is clearly disturbed. ** The pottery from the Ataköy Settlement indicates that the site was short-lived. The greatest number of sherds was found in a recently plowed field to the east of the preserved structures. The datable pottery is unusually homogeneous, and all seems to belong to the first centuries B.C. and A.D.; this site was apparently given up at the time of the monumentalization of the city of Aphrodisias in the first century A.D. and never reoccupied.en_US
dc.descriptionFinds: Finds suggest a tight occupation date of approximately the 1st c BC/AD. ** Systematic Pottery collection conducted 4 June 2006en_US
