Rectangular Paired-Pillar Structure

Harbetsuvan's rectangular paired-pillar structure shows that T-pillar architecture was not limited to the largest Taş Tepeler centers.

What's actually there

The site is a smaller Tek Tek hill node with rectangular stone buildings, paired or central pillar arrangements, and public links to a seated male sculpture and small-find assemblage.

What to notice

Rectangular stone architecture is a key Harbetsuvan anchor. Paired or central pillars are reported. The structure belongs to a smaller-site comparison lane with Göbekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe. Detailed plan, dimensions, and stratigraphy remain publication needs. Use the page as a compact architecture guide, not a full structure atlas.
