Özet

The Trabzon survey project, which was initiated in 2018, revealed a first Late Pleistocene/Early Holocene site with flint and obsidian artifacts. The findings from Koskarlı Cave in the Trabzon/Düzköy region of Turkey change the status of the prehistory of the southeastern coast of the Black Sea region from what was once known as “terra incognita” to a region whose prehistory is currently much better understood.
