The Holocene vegetation history is presented in relation to climatic changes and human impact through the pollen analytical results of a deep core obtained from a former Sağlık (Gavur) lakebed. Extensive surface surveys carried out in the region between 1993 and 2000 form the basis of the settlement pattern studies beginning with the first permanent settlement of the valley in the Neolithic and ending with the Islamic era. The results of an intensive full coverage and transect surveys around Domuztepe are found in Chapter 10. The analysis of a long historical record, diverse physical environment, and a significant number of archaeological sites are used to outline the myriad ways the ancient residents of this region between Syria and Anatolia made it their home for over seven thousand years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elizabeth Carter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1950446484\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781950446483\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cotsen Institute of Archaeology\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs","brand":"Elizabeth Carter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46384215785727,"sku":"9781950446483","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_123ce254-6840-4562-bab7-872816df0eb5.jpg?v=1733283080","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-kahramanmara-valley-survey-elizabeth-carter-9781950446483","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
