It is situated in Ömeroba Village in central Edirne. It was identified by E. Beksaç in 2006. The soil deposit of the tumulus was destroyed significantly. Its dense stone tempered deposit and the presence of lento-like erected stones in south direction, gives the impression that a dolmen type of arrantgement may be existing below the tumulus. It is in the center of a podium located at the peak of the elevation it rests on and controls the south direction [Beksaç 2008:73].
