The fortress has a natural defense, being 50-60 m high above the rocky terrace with an appearance of an artificial fortress. It measures 150x200 m in dimensions. It was discovered during the Survey of the Nevsehir Province conducted under the direction of S.Y. Senyurt in 1997. Several Hellenistic-Roman Period sherds and Iron Age sherds were collected from the surface. |
