Info The oldest find at the Kaunos archeological site is the neck of a Protogeometric amphora dating back to the 9th century BCE, or even earlier. A statue found at the western gate of the city walls, pieces of imported Attic ceramics and the S-SE oriented city walls show habitation in the 6th century BC. However, none of the architectural finds at Kaunos itself dates back to earlier than the 4th century BCE.
