It rests on a single rock between the hills 1 km west of the Dayipinar Village, 53 km from the Tutak District in Agri. With a single chamber and qualified masonry, it is accessed through a plain rectangular gate opening over the rock. The rectangular gate on the north is surrounded by a channel-like socket all along four sides. The single chamber is entered through an entrance opening with a low threshold. The chamber measures 2.2x1.95x2.27 m in dimensions. The walls are connected to each other in an oval form. At present, it is filled with stone, earth and water to a great extent. |
