There is no legend for the map icons & I cannot find the site Hallan Cemi Tepesi. Clicking on a single icon just seems to return me to the top the of the page. it is rather confusing.

cheers

    Hello, the icon for the site on this page is the orange bubble in the middle of the map which pops up with 'You are Here' when you hover over it. It has got rather buried behind some other site icons but you can just see it.

    Hallan Çemi Tepesi is apparently partially destroyed by the dam reservoir on the Batman River.
