| It was carved into the western façade of a rocky hill so called Ana Kadin at Çapil Mevkii, 5 km northwest of the Halilbagi Village. It was discovered and delineated by T. Tüfekçi-Sivas and H. Sivas in 2004. The entrance in an almost-square rectangular plan allows access to a rectangular grave chamber with gable-roof. There are two mutual benches adjacent to the walls, carved into the bedrock inside the chamber. It is a Phrygian tomb with its architectural and carving characteristics. |
