Abstract :The Early Bronze Age architecture of western Anatolia is a topic about which we know relatively little. Excavations have been conducted every single year since 1996 at Küllüoba, situated near Eskişehir, and have made significant contributions to our knowledge in this area. These investigations have yielded a sequence stretching from the Late Chalcolithic Period up to the end of the Early Bronze Age. General architectural layouts of the settlement phases could be established due to the work having been carried out horizontally over large areas. The thesis submitted here deals with, in full detail, the Early Bronze Age architecture of Küllüoba. First, its characteristics and the developmental phases have been examined. Second, its place in the West Anatolian and Aegean EBA has been determined by comparing the construction techniques used, general settlement patterns, and house types with those of the contemporary sites in these regions. Thus, this study makes an important contribution not only to the determination of the general settlement patterns and house types, of which we know very little, but also to the establishment of characteristics of the local architecture as well
