Özet:

 Archaeological excavations since 2017 of Bayraklı Mound in Old Smyrna in the western trenches have presented significant evidence of the period between the end of the Early Bronze Age and the beginning of the Middle Bronze Age. The trench is characterized by three archaeological layers, with Layer I providing some sherds related to anthropomorphic vessels containing stylized human faces and dating back to the transition from the Early to the Middle Bronze period. The anthropomorphic samples are represented by a small number of sherds with different forms and features.This article discusses the anthropomorphic vessel sherds from Layer I of the Bayraklı Mound in terms of their forms, decorations, and features and makes some comparisons with other Bronze Age sites in the West Anatolia Region. Accordingly, general interpretations have been made about the location of the Bayraklı samples in the West Anatolia Region.

 Bayraklı Höyüğü Eski Smyrna kazıları çerçevesinde 2017 yılından itibaren Batı Açmalarında yürütülen çalışmalarda Erken Tunç Çağ sonu ve Orta Tunç Çağ başlangıcına tarihlenen veriler açığa çıkarılmıştır. Başlıca 3 mimari yapı katıyla temsil edilen alanın, Erken-Orta Tunç Çağ geçiş dönemine tarihlenen I. Tabakasından ele geçen seramik bulguları içinde antropomorfik insan yüzlü kap parçalarına rastlanmıştır. Söz konusu tabakadan elde edilen seramik repertuvarı içinde az sayıda örnekle temsil edilen insan yüzlü kapların, farklı tipte ve özellikteki kaplardan oluştuğu dikkati çekmektedir. Bu makalede, Bayraklının I. Tabakasında bulunan antropomorfik kaplar, form, mal ve bezeme özellikleri açısından değerlendirilerek Batı Anadoludaki diğer Tunç Çağ merkezlerinde bulunan örneklerle karşılaştırma yoluna gidilmiştir. Buna göre Bayraklıdaki örnekler, form ve bezeme açısından ele alınarak Batı Anadolu arkeolojisindeki yeri üzerine bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır.
