TY - JOUR T1 - Second Milleniurn Pottery from The Konya Plain and Neighbourhood AU - Mellaart, James PY - 1958 DA - July DO - 10.37879/ttkbelleten.1266741 JF - BELLETEN JO - TTK BELLETEN PB - Türk Tarih Kurumu WT - DergiPark SN - 0041-4255 SP - 311 EP - 346 VL - 22 IS - 87 LA - en AB - The pottery, which forms the subject of this paper, was collected by the writer during a series of surveys in Southern Anatolia during the years 1951 - 1954. During these surveys, m.ostly on foot, large numbers of prehistoric sites were found, but a complete survey of the Konya plain, originally intended, had to be abandoned as the distances involved were too great to be traversed on foot. More-over the richness of many mounds in broken pottery was often so great that the carrying back of potsherds over considerable distances became too much of a burden. In an area like that of the Konya plain, mechanical transport is required if one really wants to visit every mound.
