Six field seasons of excavation (1992-1997) were conducted at Hacinebi, followed by two seasons of artifact analysis at the Sanliurfa Provincial Museum (1998-1999). A full updated list of Hacinebi project publications is listed elsewhere in this website.Preliminary reports on the results of excavations and artifact analyses have appeared in the journals Anatolica, American Journal of Archaeology, Journal of Field Archaeology, and in the Turkish Ministry of Culture, General Directorate of Monuments and Museums' series Kazi Sonuclari Toplantisi. Copies of the Kazi Sonuclari short preliminary reports on the 1992-1997 field seasons are accessible below.
NOTE: These reports are preliminary. They reflect our best understanding of the excavations at the end of each field season, and should not be construed as final interpretive statements. Instead, they present an evolving understanding of the site, its stratigraphy, and its chronology in each season as excavations and artifact analyses progressed. We expect our interpretations to develop further as we move toward the completion of our analyses and the publication of the final site report.
The most current set of synthetic interim reports was published in 1999 in a special issue of the journal Paléorient - volume 25 (1) titled "The Uruk Expansion: Northern Perspectives from Hacinebi, Hassek Höyük, and Gawra".
