When Anatolian cave settlements were examined, it was understood that earliest humans were hunter gatherers. With the start of agriculture, permanent settlements also appeared. Humid Subtropical Climate Zone, which is suitable for both human and pastoral life, is where the first settlements appeared. Anatolia, known by the Latin name of Asia Minor, has been the cradle of civilizations. Asia Minor, by being a bridge between three continents and with its fertile lands and temperate climate, has been a suitable region for human settlements for thousands of years. Because of these reasons interconnected routes in Anatolia are important. Kemerhisar, which is the focus of our study, has been founded around 1650 BCE. It has been vital through historical ages and its importance still continues. Because of these, this region has been vulnerable to many invasions and became the center of settlement for many civilizations.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSettlement GeographyTurkey's Ancient SettlementsKemerhisarArticle22388408WOS:000443090700017N/A
