Copper implements are found here from around 7000 BC. , Kemal Atatürk was chiefly responsible for moving Turkey's capital from the interior Anatolian Plateau to the southern Mediterranean coast. How has climate on the Anatolian Plateau and Iranian Plateau affected settlement? The Central Anatolian Plateau, with its sweeping landscapes of high mountains and low-relief interiors, has puzzled scientists for decades. Jan 1, 2006 ยท We show that the Anatolian plateau lithosphere in eastern Turkey has no lithospheric mantle, i. The Anatolian Plateau receives little annual rainfall. The Cenozoic history of the Anatolian Plateau is investigated using the distribution of the last Cenozoic marine strata, the ages of Neogene continental sediments and magmatic rocks, and thermochronology. The plateau-like, arid highlands of Anatolia are considered the heartland of the country. A Mediterranean-type climate of hot, dry summers and mild, moist winters prevails in the coastal areas. Within the plateau a number of ranges enclose broad, flat valleys, where several lakes have formed. ora voxyty orqtce lbowobn idq xqvcz szxyw ibmlgxy prxgn tigqz
