It is situated in Patnos district of Agri. The settlement covers an area approximately of 700 m2, has a height of 10 m. It was surveyed by A. Özfirat et al. in 2006. Its size is pretty large, but was destroyed due to constructed houses above. 2.5 m thick Urartu walls are visible in some diggings. It seems to be an important center in the region based on the variety of sherds collected, its dimensions, architectural remains and a location immediately below Aznavurtepe. Coded M68/3 [Ozfirat 2008:205].
