| It rests on a natural elevation lying immediate south of the Hirka Köyü Dam, 3 km north of the Merzifon District in Amasya. With an approximate diameter of 100 m, it has been destroyed due to some eroded sections and illicit diggings. Sherds belonging to the Early Bronze Age and Iron Age settlements were found on the hilltop. |
