The results of the surface surveys, test pit operations, profile trenches and excavation finds demonstrate that processing of cassiterite-rich ore was the primary function of activities at GoÌltepe. The variety and density of tin-rich vitrified crucibles as well as ground, powdered tin-rich ore from excavated contexts were only some of the several lines of evidence. Other finds indicated that the site was profoundly associated with metal production. Weighty evidence came in the numbers of multifaceted molds, ingots and tin bronze artifacts. Furthermore, 50,000 ground stone tools for ore dressing and vitrified material grinding were estimated on the site surface, while 5,000 came from excavated contexts. Early Bronze Age GoÌltepe and Kestel Mine represent the as-yet unique example of the highland production model, that is, the industrial tier 1 of the extraction and processing of raw materials for the production of metal artifacts. This model entails the mining and smelting operations in the metalliferously rich ore deposits and forests, usually located in the mountains, in this case, the central Taurus Mountains in southern Turkey"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Excavations $z Taurus Mountains. $z Taurus Mountains. 650 0 $a Metallurgy in archaeology $z Taurus Mountains. $z Taurus Mountains. 650 0 $a Tin industry $z Taurus Mountains. $z Taurus Mountains. 650 0 $a Bronze age $z Taurus Mountains. $z Taurus Mountains. 650 0 $a Mines and mineral resources $z Taurus Mountains. $z Taurus Mountains. 650 0 $a Metal-work, Prehistoric $z Turkey. 650 7 $a Antiquities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00810745 650 7 $a Bronze age. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00839439 650 7 $a Metal-work, Prehistoric. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01017830 650 7 $a Metallurgy in archaeology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01018043 650 7 $a Mines and mineral resources. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01022541 650 7 $a Tin industry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01151305 651 0 $a Taurus Mountains (Turkey) $x Antiquities. 651 7 $a Turkey. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01208963 651 7 $a Turkey $z Taurus Mountains. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244147 776 08 $i Online version: $a Yener, Kutlu Aslihan, 1946- $t GoÌltepe excavations $d Philadelphia, Pennsylvania : INSTAP Academic Press, 2020. $z 9781623034283 $w (DLC) 2020044825 830 0 $a Prehistory monographs ; $v 64. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022327.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EF300A04477411EC81CA9FE82DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
