What you're looking at

The southern area contains residential buildings with bedrock floors, benches, niches, hearths, storage or food-preparation areas, grinding tools, and pillars.

Why it matters

  • Residential structure group
  • Food-preparation evidence
  • Pillars inside domestic space
  • Readiness: expandable-ready with caveats
  • Supports southern residential structures and domestic features.
  • Building-by-building breakdown still needs more feature-level extraction.
  • Use residential, food-preparation, storage, hearth, bench, niche, pillar, and bedrock-floor details as a domestic-area cluster.

What to notice first

  • Bedrock floors
  • Benches and niches
  • Hearths or ovens
  • Storage and work areas
  • Grinding tools
  • T-shaped or human-shaped pillars

  • Use reported wording where exact locus, phase, function, and feature counts remain open.
  • Do not reduce Sayburç evidence to one settled myth, ritual, or domestic-only explanation.
  • Say houses and work areas. Do not present all domestic features as ritual by default.
  • Scene description and interpretation must stay separate.

  • What later publication will separate exact locus, dating, and feature-level context?

  • Detailed evidence notes remain available for deeper review.
