dc.descriptionDescription: The site lies on the north side of the valley at the base of the Baba Dağı ridge near the village of Palamutçuk. The site occupies a promontory-like schist outcropping overlooking a seasonal streambed, in which water still flows as late as June. A modern seasonal settlement (yayla) is located just below the ancient site, together with two dilapidated modern farmhouses. ** This settlement was a small village, spread out over an area approximately 140 m by 30 m. At least eight unmortared schist walls survive from the ancient settlement. Only one room, approximately 5 m square, is clearly outlined by walls, but leveled areas along the promontory indicate the presence of the other structures. Part of an isolated wall projecting from the face of a gully along the east boundary of the promontory is 1.30 m wide, with a preserved height of 1.90 m and a visible length of 1.80 m. There is also one threshold block, perhaps in situ (L: 1.14m, W: 0.56m, visible H: at least 0.25m, W raised portion: 0.20m). A rock-cut tomb is seen midway up the settlement (B078). Five schist counterweight blocks were found at the site, one inside the only visible room; the other four are scattered across the promontory. ** The date of the pottery from Çatak Tepesi is generally Hellenistic to Early Imperial, but there are also a number of brown glazed Ottoman or early modern sherds, presumably associated with seasonal occupation of the kind still practiced today.en_US
dc.descriptionFinds: Pottery suggests that the site was occupied primarily in the Hellenistic to Early Imperial periods. ** Non-systematic pottery collection conducted 6 June 2006 ** Systematic pottery collection conducted 6 June 2008en_US
