About the House of Köşk Höyük
This house reflects the characteristics of the Early Chalcolithic period (4883 ± 125 BC) and was brought to light in Köşk Höyük. It consists of a large room, a division on the north-east, and a store divided by a granary, the building covers an area of 60,75 square meters. The surviving height of the mud covered stone walls is 2,30 meters today. The burnt remains of the wooden pillars used both for ceiling cover, which is thought to be flat, and for inner parts are pine and oak. The building, in which at least 54 different woods were used during its construction, was destroyed by a fire 42 years later. The objects that were in the house at the time of the fire are exhibited in this model.
