This is the first archaeological documentation of the continuity of
settlement at Tille Hoyuk from the Late Bronze Age to the Iron Age. The
report contains descriptions of finds from the LBA, and discussion of
the local hand-made pottery. The pottery from the earlier part of the
LBA is unlike anything previously known and its recognition may help
account for the apparant dearth of LBA occupation in south-east Turkey.
As the only site in the Ataturk Dam region to document closely this
transition, it should be essential reading for those concerned with this
period in the Near East.
