| Special analysis | |
| Comment | In 1995 a regional survey was undertaken to primarily put Çatalhöyük into its historical context. 15 tell sites were located within the 12x10km area northeast of Çatalhöyük, and field-walking revealed five more sites. In 1996 remote sensing and satellite imagery took place. By 1997 the survey area comprised approximately 450 km² of land around the Çarşamba alluvial fan, and 74 sites had been identified. In 2000 the western edge of the Konya plain was surveyed intensively. |
