Abstract

In this article 22 miniature vehicles Anatolian origin, published have been evaluated based on their technical features, draught animals and their functions. Although the vehicles in question are dated to the 3rd millennium BC, finds dated to the Chalcolithic period were also found in archaeological excavations. There are also examples of miniature vehicles from 3rd millennium BC that have not yet been published or have only been found on wheels, and they are not included in this article. Miniture vehicles found in Anatolia come mainly from the southeast Anatolia region. It is uncertain where some of the other vehicles of Anatolian came from. These vehicles, made of terracotta and metal (copper or bronze), have a body with or without a visor, mostly with four wheels and a pair of draught animals. There are few two-wheeled examples. The draught animals of miniature vehicles is usually a pair of bulls. However, horses are rarely used in miniature vehicles. There are two different methods in construction technique of the metal vehicles. The first method is casting and the second method is a process in which the parts of the vehicles are assembled after being made one by one. In this article, it is aimed to contribute to future studies on this subject by collectively evaluating Anatolian miniature sized vehicles belonging to the 3rd millennium BC..
