The settlement appears in the Isparta Culture Inventory which was achieved after the surveys organized by the Isparta Province Culture and Tourism Directorship in 2009. There are structures which were heavily damaged and built with local stones on the hill. The functions of these structures are not known. Partially preserved, erected by embossed stone masonry, the walls show that the settlement could be dated back to Hellenistic Period. Large amount of potsherds were encountered in the area.
