Current Archaeology in Turkey. Tütkiye'de Yapilan Arkeolojik Arastirmalar

Current Archaeology in Turkey is designed as a resource for archaeological research in the area. It aims to provide up-to-date information on projects currently operating in Turkey.

The site is operating under the auspices of the Anatolian Iron Age research project headed by Dr Peter Grave and Dr Lisa Kealhofer and is hosted at the University of New England, Armidale, Australia. It is updated regularly throughout the (northern) academic year.

Information in this site is based on reports given at the International Symposium of Excavations, Surveys and Archaeometry (Turkey) and reports provided by excavators. We acknowledge the assistance of Dr Marie-Henriette Gates and Dr Bahadır Yıldırım, authors of "Archaeology in Turkey", American Journal of Archaeology.

Turkish translations of reports by Nilüfer Baturayoğlu Yöney and Füsun Ece Ferah.

We welcome contributions from all excavators, as well as any suggestions about the database or its content.
