| It is a small fort founded on a high rock plateau, 1.5 km north of the Inlice Quarter in the Ovacik Village. It is accessed through a monumental entrance from the south. To the west of the entrance is an oval niche with a relief of Mother Goddess on the vertical surface of the rock. The second entrance to the fort is through rock stairs on the east. Foundation pits, reservoirs and cisterns opened into the bedrock are observed on the plateau. |
