It overlooks Körpeagaç (Dom) Village of Yaygin Sub-District;north-northwest of Konukbeler town northwest of Mus Province. Mus-Elazig motorway passes north of the mound. There are houses west of the site and the mound of Gaybeyan/Hirtadom is north-northwest of it. The mound measures 15 m in height and 100 m in diameter. It was discovered by C. A. Burney; and indicated in the map illustrating the settlements of Eastern Anatolia. Although Rothmann has identified it as an EBA I settlement in his first publication; his other publications do not include it among the EBA settlements. Therefore; it is uncertain if it is an EBA settlement. During the survey conducted by H. Biber and his team, pottery sherds dating to EBA, IA and Middle Age were found [Biber 2016:340].
