It is near Karacalar Village of Sarikaya District in Yozgat. It was discovered by K. Strobel et al. during the survey performed within the scope of International Tavium Project in 2008. Most of the material collected on the surface belong to Iron Age. The pit revealed during the illicit digging suggests that this place is a tumulus. At present there is a 30 m long encompassing wall 1.2 m below the surface which is supported by a stone deposit [Strobel et al. 2010:188].
