It is situated to the south-southwest of the Kuyucak meadow, west-northwest of the Gürgöze (Aynik) Village in Siirt. With a height of 2 m, it is 50 m long in north-south direction, and 75 m in east-west direction. It is a deserted hill only with building remains. A road divides the mound in half. There is a water spring 50 m to the northeast. It contains probably the plain ware belonging to the first half of the 1st Millennium BC, and a similar group of red coated, burnished and wheelmade ware (particularly seen at Nemrut, Tell Halaf's Kabara level, Amique phase O, Syro-Hittite level at Hama and Palestinian Early Iron Age II). |
