Coal firm aims to halt excavations at Neolithic tumulus in western Turkey

A power plant company that holds the right to extract coal from a mine located under Turkey's Neolithic Seyitömer tumulus wants to halt excavations on the site for the sake of coal. 

The Seyitömer tumulus, located in the western province of Kütahya, could be sacrificed for coal from a mine lying underneath the tumulus.
