Tell site in southeast Turkey, occupied in the Neolithic period, with a sequence of wares relating the Amuq and Halaf pottery styles. In the early 1st millennium bc the site was reoccupied and a Syro-Hittite palace erected on the northwest corner of the citadel, decorated with reliefs and inscriptions.
