 Bu makalede Antik Bithynia Bölgesi sınırları içinde kalan günümüzdeki Yalova İlinin Altınova İlçesindeki bir kaya anıtı ele alınmaktadır. Kaya anıtı, üzerinde yapılan teknik çalışmaların yanı sıra benzer anıtlar incelenerek ve karşılaştırılmalar yapılarak yürütülen geniş bir literatür çalışması ile değerlendirilmiştir. Yerleşim yerlerinden uzak, bir dağ sırtı üzerinde ve önündeki geniş vadiye hâkim konumda bulunan Altınova Kaya Anıtı, Anadoluda yaygın olarak görülen anakayanın yerinde işlenmesiyle oluşturulmuş ve kült alanı olarak kullanılmış kaya oyma yapılarla ortak mimari unsurlara sahiptir. Makalemizde kaya anıtının mimari özellikleri ve işlevi değerlendirilmiş, tarihlendirilmesi ile ilgili tartışmalar yürütülerek öneriler sunulmuştur.
