Hacılar Mound, considered one of the oldest settlement areas in Western Anatolia, is an important archaeological site. Discovered in 1956, the mound was excavated between 1957 and 1960 by the renowned British archaeologist James Mellaart, revealing 16 settlement layers ranging from the Neolithic to the Early Chalcolithic periods. These phases, where agriculture began to be practiced and permanent settlement emerged, provide significant insights into prehistoric eras. During the excavations, many valuable artifacts, such as stone-based mudbrick houses, ceramics adorned with geometric patterns, and figurines of the mother goddess, were unearthed. Exhibited at the Burdur Museum, the Hacılar finds connect visitors with this rich historical heritage, while Hacılar Mound stands out as a unique destination for those interested in exploring one of Anatolia's earliest settlements.
