Bu makale ile Banaz Ovası’nın Orta Tunç Çağındaki yerleşim durumunun ortaya konulması amaçlanmaktadır. Uşak bölgesinin Orta Tunç Çağı hakkındaki verileri kısıtlıdır. Bu makalede Uşak’ın doğusunda bulunan verimli Banaz Ovası’nda tespit edilen 9 adet Orta Tunç Çağı yerleşimi değerlendirilmektedir. Bu yerleşmeler içerisinde Banaz Höyük ve Ayvacık Höyük OTÇ’da bölgenin önemli yerleşmeleri olarak dikkati çekmektedir. Banaz Ovası’nda OTÇ’da kesintisiz bir yerleşimin var olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Ovadaki yerleşmeler birbirinden çok uzak değildir ve yerleşmeler genel olarak ovalık bölgede ve doğal yol güzergâhları üzerinde yoğunlaşmaktadır. Doğal yol güzergâhları üzerindeki yerleşmeler nispeten daha büyük boyutludur. Bölgedeki yerleşmelerin birbirine benzer çanak çömlek formlarına sahip olması kültürel olarak ta etkileşim içerisinde olduklarına işaret etmektedir. Banaz Ovası yerleşmelerinin Orta Anadolu ile Batı Anadolu arasındaki konumu sayesinde siyasi, kültürel, ticaret ve ulaşım bakımından çevre bölgelerle güçlü ilişkilere sahip olduğu değerlendirilebilir.

This article aims to reveal the settlement status of the Banaz Plain in the Middle Bronze Age. The data on the Middle Bronze Age of the Uşak region is limited. This article evaluates 9 Middle Bronze Age settlements identified in the fertile Banaz Plain located east of Uşak. Among these settlements, Banaz Mound and Ayvacık Mound stand out as important settlements of the region in the Middle Bronze Age. It is understood that there was an uninterrupted settlement in the Banaz Plain in the MBA. The settlements in the plain are not very far from each other and the settlements are generally concentrated in the plain region and on natural road routes. The settlements on natural road routes are relatively larger in size. The fact that the settlements in the region have similar pottery forms indicates that they were also culturally interactive. It can be evaluated that the Banaz Plain settlements had strong relations with the surrounding regions in terms of politics, culture, trade and transportation thanks to their location between Central Anatolia and Western Anatolia.
