| The mound lies 27 km east of Mus; 3 km southwest of Korkut (Til) village; on Kocatarla road. The mound was discovered by C. Burney in 1957. The small mound is 5 m height and 30 m in diameter. The mound was named Alikirpun 2; because of the Alikirpun (Kocatarla) village to the southwest of the site. Russel dates the pottery suspiciously to the Chalcolithic Age. There were also potsherds dating back to more recent periods (?). |
