| It lies 1 km east of the Kaman Disrict in Kirsehir. It measures ca. 80 m in diameter and 9.5 m in height, and the skirts of the mound have been destroyed due to construction activities. To the west lies a water spring. It was discovered in 1986 during the "Surveys in the Province of Kirsehir" conducted under the direction of S. Omura. Presence of intense material from the Early Bronze Age and Iron Age was reported as well as a large pithos dating to the Byzantine Period found on the skirt. It is listed among the registered archaeological sites prepared by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. |
