Özet

Amik Ovasını güneybatıdan çevreleyen dağlık alanda yer alan ve Hatay Arkeoloji Müzesi tarafından gerçekleştirilen Toprakhisar Höyük Altınözü, Hatay kurtarma kazısında, Orta Tunç Çağı MÖ 2000-1600 döneminde yeniden kentleşme olgusunu yansıtan bir yapı kompleksi açığa çıkartılmıştır. Mekan kullanımında maddesellik, işlev ve bilinçli sembolizm konusu çerçevesinde irdelenen arkeolojik veri üzerinden, kırsal yerleşimlerde görülen idari yapı komplekslerinin, kent merkezlerinden bilinen daha büyük ölçekteki sarayların stilistik özellikleri ile benzerlik gösterdiği savunulmuştur.
