Lying on the left side of the road at the 14 km of the Bozüyük-Eskisehir motorway, it is 5 m high above the plain level, with a diameter of 250 m. During the surveys in relation with the Inventory for Preservation of Natural and Cultural Assets, ceramics dating from the Early Bronze Age to the Classical Age, mainly from the Phrygian Period were observed on the surface. Being disturbed by illicit diggings, some part of the mound was used as a Late Roman-early Byzantine necropolis.
