Karahüyük

Just 5km/3mi to the northwest of Elbistan on the Elbistan plain, in a hill near Karahüyük archeologists have unearthed the remains of a Hittite settlement. Some of the interesting finds include a terracotta horse's head from a drinking horn (1200 B.C.) and a memorial stele to a late Hittite prince. The stone which resembles a menhir displays a hieroglyphic inscription on three sides and can now be seen in Ankara's Hittite Museum.
