Research has been carried out and data on local and imported cultural remains have been obtained on the settlements dating back to the 2nd millennium BC in the areas following the Coastal Aegean strip, starting from the Troas Region on the western coast of Anatolia and extending to Southwest Anatolia.Yassıtepe Höyük, located in the center of Izmir, where the Bornova Plain opens to Inner Western Anatolia, stands out as a new area contributing to the 2nd millennium BC process of Western Anatolia with its archaeological findings. Located in the prehistoric settlement area of Izmir, Yassıtepe Höyük, together with İpeklikuyu in the east and Yeşilova Mound in the south, was inhabited uninterruptedly for thousands of years, starting 8500 years ago from today until the Roman Period. Yassıtepe Höyük, which is a small-scale are a with a size of 3 hectares, like the contemporary period settlements in Izmir and its surroundings, has provided data that will contribute to the Middle and Late Bronze Ages of Western Anatolia, although it can be studied in limited areas due to being buried under modern structures. While Yassıtepe largely reflects the local characteristics of Anatolia with its architecture, pottery and smallfinds,it also show sthat it is connected to distant regions with a small number of imported finds. In this context, a connection was established with Central Anatolian cultures through caravanroutes, and the existence of commercial relations was provenby archaeological findings regarding the measurement system. With the tomb finds identified in plotno. 77, information about the burial tradition was obtained, and thanks to the Mycenaean finds unearthed in the tombs, the overseas connection area of Yassıtepe during the LH IIIA2 Period became defined.

Batı Anadolu’da MÖ 2. Binyıl Ticaretinde, Yassıtepe Höyüğü

Anadolu’nun batı kıyılarında Troas Bölgesinden başlayarak Güneybatı Anadolu’ya kadar Kıyı Ege şeridini takip eden alanlarda MÖ 2. binyıla tarihlenen yerleşimler ile ilgili araştırmalar yapılmış, yerel ve ithal kültür kalıntılarına ilişkin veriler elde edilmiştir. İzmir’in merkezinde, Bornova Ovası’nın İç Batı Anadolu’ya açıldığı yerde bulunan Yassıtepe Höyüğü, arkeolojik bulgularıyla Batı Anadolu’nun MÖ 2.binyıl sürecine katkı sağlayan yeni alan olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. İzmir'in tarih öncesi yerleşim alanında yer alan Yassıtepe Höyüğü, doğusunda İpeklikuyu, güneyindeki Yeşilova Höyüğü ile birlikte günümüzden 8500 yıl önceden başlayarak Roma dönemine kadar binlerce yıl kesintisiz yerleşim görmüştür. 3 hektar boyutuyla, İzmir ve çevresinde yer alan çağdaş dönem yerleşim yerleri gibi küçük ölçekli bir alan olan Yassıtepe Höyüğü, modern yapılar altında kalması nedeniyle sınırlı alanlarda çalışılmasına karşın, Batı Anadolu’nun Orta ve Geç Tunç Çağlarına katkı sağlayacak nitelikte veriler sunmuştur. Yassıtepe, mimarisi, çanak çömlekleri ve küçük buluntularıyla Anadolu’nun yerel özelliklerini büyük oranda yansıtırken, az sayıda ithal buluntusuyla da uzak bölgeler ile bağlı halinde olunduğunu göstermiştir. Bu bağlamda kervan yolları üzerinden Orta Anadolu kültürleri ile bağlantı kurulmuş, ticari ilişkinin varlığı ölçü sistemine ait arkeolojik bulgular ile kanıtlanmıştır. 77 no.lu parselde tespit edilen mezar buluntularıyla hem gömü geleneği hakkında bilgi edinilmiş hem de mezarlarda açığa çıkartılan Miken buluntuları sayesinde GH IIIA2 döneminde Yassıtepe’nin deniz aşırı bağlantı alanı tanımlı hale gelmiştir.
