The work is focused on the distribution of macrolithic artefacts (MA) dated to the Middle Chalcolithic from the Güvercinkayası site. The site is uniquely located on a rhyolite rock, which protects it from the south. At least four main construction phases have been detected. From the third phase on, a spatial division of the settlement can be observed with two basic parts, the upper plateau and the lower terrace, which are divided by a defensive system consisting of a massive wall and two tower-like structures. MA go through “life cycles” similar to those of other artefacts, including numerous secondary uses. Our analyses have been focused on the monitoring of the occurrences of various categories of MA. Perhaps the most important discovery based on the occurrence of MA is an increased concentration of production activities connected, not exclusively, with kitchen practices and storage activities in the area of the upper plateau. The exceptional position of this part of the settlement might be confirmed by an increased occurrence of stone spheres, which could have served as weapons, which could be evidence of attacks by other communities.
