Körtik Tepe 2012 Stratigraphy
Introduction
This stratigraphic documentation is based on the drawings and descriptions of Filiz Doğan (FD). Two profiles (A135) were drawn and documented by Corinna Rößner (CR). Profiles A71, A80, A83, A84 and A104 were documented by Felix Schreiber (FS), Filiz Doğan, M. Deva Jebb-Albaba (MDJA), Christian Maise (CM) and Marion Benz (MB).

This documentation should be considered a basis for a discussion of the stratigraphy of the tell. Without knowing the findings, it is actually very difficult to provide secure chronological attributions, where no radiocarbon data are available. So, we are aware, that this report probably does need revisions and additional information, without which it will not be possible to gain a conclusive model of the stratigraphy.
Financial support for the German team was granted by the German Research Foundation (BE 4218/2-2; AL 287/9-2). In 2012 additional support was granted by Prof. Dr. Helmut Köser, Lions-Club Emmendingen, Maria and Dr. Manfred Probst. We owe our deepest thanks to all of them.
