Description In the Galatas Survey Project in 2005 several small settlements were discovered near the coast.
Comment Some finds from the Galatas Survey Project are mentioned (black, burnished pottery, stone-axes, flint- and obsidian blades, nuclei and scrapers from the Neolithic; Early Minoan wiped pottery), but it is not said where exactly they were found, therefore they are not entered into the database separately.
