Description
Summary:The book, which is bilingual in Turkish and English, consists of six chapters with a presentation, a short introduction to the work done on Mount Ararat, a foreword and acknowledgements. The book deals with the results of the excavations and surveys carried out between 2007 and 2013 in Bozkurt Village, which is located on the Iğdır Plain-Aras Valley Pass at the northern end of Doğubayazıt Plain. Although many archaeological excavations and surveys have been carried out in the Eastern Anatolia Region, these studies mostly focus on Middle Iron Age (Urartian) archaeology (Çifçi 2017: 23-24; Çifçi 2020: 17-18; Çifçi 2022). Hence, archaeological excavations and surveys in Mount Ararat and its surrounding areas provide us with a unique opportunity to study various periods from Chalcolithic to the Middle Iron Ages.
