A large group of architectural tcrracottas was collectcd on the local market by the Burdur Museum staff after 1963-64 and is now either on exhibit in the Museum gallery or stored in the Museum depot. Most likely, these roof tiles ali came frem illicit digging on the Iron Age eitadel called Yarım Ada, a peninsula on the east side of Yariijh Gölü, 10 km. west of Hacilar in the province of Burdur in south- west Turkey (Fig. 1; Pl. ı).^ Several of the friezc plagues shovving a horseman and griffin were sold outside Turkey in 1964 and after- ward. ® There are a few fragments of the Rider/Griffin frieze plaques in the Burdur Museum, but most of the Burdur plaques show geomet- ric designs, a few of which are known from sales abroad.
