Then, after the location of the aforesaid region is stated, it will be tried to examine the grave findings obtained in the mounds and caves identified in the Neolithic, Chalcolithic Period, and Early Bronze Age in accordance with the chronology in the literature. It is planned to consider the burial traditions separately for each period and to make periodic evaluations at the end of the section.
