Özet
The Okuzini cave in South Western Turkey yielded a Late Palaeolithic sequence. Four archaeological stages have been distinguished on the basis of technical evolution, animal remains and dates. Stage 1 (16 000-14 000 BC) is characterized by stemmed backed points and elongated triangles. The same material is found in stage 2 (14 000-13 000 BC) with numerous microliths in addition. Stage 3 (13 000-10 500 BC) is characterized particularly by geometric microliths and a quite important bone industry. Stage 4 (9 000-6 500 BC) corresponds to the Neolithic; the burial belongs probably to this stage.
