Site No. 99. Site Name: Kactaş 1
UTM East 752699; UTM North 4026440. Date: Hell – Rom - Byz
4/7/2008: This small, flat clay hill lies to the SW of site 97, along the coast
near the modern holiday village of Deniz Yaykası, next to a fish restaurant.
Clay deposits were visible in the road cut on the eastern side of the hill. A
scatter of ceramic remains was present on the top of the hill and in the road
cut. The location may have been chosen for the availability of clay, which
showed evidence of being mined in the modern period.
