Abstract :During a survey of pre-classical remains in Southern Anatolia made in 1951-52\' we have been able to define four regions, each with its own distinctive Iron Age pottery, as well as two others with mixed groups of pottery. They are: a) the Eastern Konya plain, b) the Afyon-Konya area, c) the South-Western Anatolian plateau, d) the Calycadnos (Gök Su) valley and the coast of Cilicia between Silifke and Mersin. The mixed areas are the Western part the Konya plain and the \"Lake District\" (Eğridir, Beyşehir and Suğla lakes ).
