Abstract
Askeri ve ticari yol güzergahı üzerinde bulunması ve güçlü şehir surlarına sahip olması, İznik'i Roma ve Bizans dönemlerinde Anadolu'daki önemli şehirlerden biri konumuna getirmiştir. Tarihsel kimliği ile kent her zaman bilim insanlarının ilgisini çekmiştir; ancak alan araştırmaları genellikle İznik'teki dini yapılar ve surlar üzerine odaklanmıştır. Bu çalışmada araştırmacıların daha az ilgi gösterdiği Geç Antik - Erken Hristiyanlık dönemi nekropol alanlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
İznik'in kuzeyinde, doğusunda ve güneyinde yükselen tepeler ve bu tepelerin yamaçları Antik dönemden Bizans dönemine kadar nekropol alanı olarak kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada İznik nekropollerinin konumu ve genel değerlendirmesinin yanı sıra, son yıllarda bazıları kaçak kazılar, bazıları ise inşaat ya da tarım etkinliklerinde ortaya çıkarlan mezar odalarından yedisi, plan tipleri, duvar resimleri ve tarihlendirilme sorunları ile birlikte ele alıncaktır.

Abstract
Due to its location at the crossroads of the trade and military routes, Iznik (Nikaia) has been one of the most important cities during the Roman and Byzantine Empires in Anatolia. Even though there have been numerous studies on Iznik (Nikaia), nevertheless the focus of scholarly interest has been mostly on the religious buildings and city walls. The aim of this study is to evaluate a rather neglected part of the city, namely the Late Antique-Early Christian necropolis.
The hills on the northern, eastern and southern parts of Iznik and their outskirts have been used as necropolis since Antiquity until the Byzantine period. Current study intends to shed light on the plan types, wall paintings and the dating of the recently discovered seven hypogea in recent years as a result of illegal excavations, construction and agricultural activities.
