| This site is on a hill of 1,870 m altitude on the West of a field named as Kale Sırtı (Gurgura) approximately 2 km South of Elmakaya County of Bulanık Suburb of Muş City. It is documented during the survey carried out by Biber- Çavuşoğlu in 2009. Gürleyen (Gurgura) Creek flows from the South and East of the mound. The surface is rocky and remains of the surrounding wall can be traced. Few rows of cyclobic stones with half-workmanship can be seen especially on the North and top side [Biber-Çavuşoğlu 2011: 208]. |
