The finds in nearby Çatalhöyük, consisting of terracotta pottery and stone tools as well as artefacts from the Bronze Age (1950-1750 B.C.), mostly ribbed terracotta ceramics, occupy a large space. From the archaeological excavations in Virgin, Karahöyük and Beyşehir; Middle Bronze Age (1950-1750 B.C.) artefacts from terracotta and bronze rings from Konya Karahöyük are exhibited. In the open courtyard of the museum there are a number of small sculptures, sarcophagi, column heads and epigraphy. |
