Harbetsuvan Tepesi, Archaeological site in Eyyübiye, Turkey

Located 55 kilometers southeast of Şanlıurfa, Harbetsuvan Tepesi stands at 740 meters above sea level on limestone hills of Tektek mountain range.

Excavations in 2014 by Şanlıurfa Museum uncovered Pre-Pottery Neolithic structures with rectangular buildings containing stone pillars dating back to Early PPNB phase.

The site contains numerous flint artifacts scattered across its surface, leading to its local name which translates to 'the ruined mound of flint'.

From this elevated position, visitors can observe both Göbekli Tepe 35 kilometers northwest and the Neolithic settlement of Karahantepe 7 kilometers northeast.

Archaeologists discovered a seated male sculpture resembling figures found at Göbekli Tepe, along with obsidian tools indicating trade connections with distant regions.
