A large-size grave locally known as "Firinkaya" stands on one of the rocks. S. Basaran reported that they found evidence proving that the rock approximately 600 m southwest of Firinkaya was used as a stone quarry during the ancient period. Remains of a tower, which functioned like a outpost on the southern section of the above mentioned rock. Basaran indicates that these remains may have belonged to a village or a farm.
