In 1937, British archaeologist John Garstang (1876-1956) excavated several trenches at the site of Kazanli Höyük as part of the Neilson Expedition in Cilicia. The site is located in Plain Cilicia, approximately 2 km from the modern coastline (ca. 11 km east of modern-day Mersin, and 17 km west of Tarsus, roughly located by the ancient/modern road connecting these two cities).Unpublished photographs kept in the Special Collections of the University College London (UCL) shed new light on Garstang's work at the site.

Abstract

In 1937, British archaeologist John Garstang (1876-1956) excavated several trenches at the site of Kazanli Höyük as part of the Neilson Expedition in Cilicia. The site is located in Plain Cilicia, approximately 2 km from the modern coastline (ca. 11 km east of modern-day Mersin, and 17 km west of Tarsus, roughly located by the ancient/modern road connecting these two cities).Unpublished photographs kept in the Special Collections of the University College London (UCL) shed new light on Garstang's work at the site.
