It lies to the west of the Kötek Stream, 15 km northwest of the Kagizman District in Kars. Located east of the area so called "Ahmet'in Peyligi", it measures ca. 50x40 m in dimensions, and 20 m in height. It was occupied until the early 20th century. Architectural remains from this late period can be obviously traced on the surface of the mound. It has been greatly destroyed due to removal of stones, which were reused recently for the construction of houses. Late Iron Age ceramics were found during the survey conducted in the vicinity of the mound.
