In this respect, the finds from the Eyice Mound located to the northwest of Sinanpasa, west of Afyonkarahisar deserve a special attention. The site is located on the natural route heading towards Kutahya. The mound yielded not only the typical painted pottery of the Lakes District to the south, but also the purplish red or brown painted pottery groups of the so-called Aslanapa Culture known from the northern parts of Afyon and the entire extent of the Kutahya province. Aslanapa type of pottery has also been collected from the Pani Mound situated in the west of Bolvadin. Thus, it became clear that the distribution area of the Aslanapa Culture extended further to the east to cover Bolvadin, east of Afyonkarahisar.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessEyice Moundpurplish red painted potteryAfyonkarahisarAslanapaInland Mid-west AnatoliaArticle132338WOS:000287631400003N/A
