The upper Tigris river valley is located in southeastern Anatolia. Due to the planned construction of the Ilısu Dam, the region has been investigated since the late 1980’s by numerous Turkish and foreign archaeologists, detecting more than six hundred sites dated from Palaeolithic to Medieval periods. Since 2008, 30 rescue excavations have been carried out within the region. On the basis of the excavation data now available, it is possible to attempt a comparison with the initial survey data, focusing on the evolution of settlement patterns throughout the millennia.

Abstract
The upper Tigris river valley is located in southeastern Anatolia. Due to the planned construction of the Ilısu Dam, the region has been investigated since the late 1980’s by numerous Turkish and foreign archaeologists, detecting more than six hundred sites dated from Palaeolithic to Medieval periods. Since 2008, 30 rescue excavations have been carried out within the region. On the basis of the excavation data now available, it is possible to attempt a comparison with the initial survey data, focusing on the evolution of settlement patterns throughout the millennia.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
