| Location: It is located in the village of Pulur (Ömertepe); 7-8 km south-southeast of the Ilica District; 15 km west-southwest of Erzurum Province. |
| Geography and Environment: Adjacent to the mound; the Pulur Stream flows about 17 m high above the Erzurum Plain. It is surrounded by a fertile land. Although no information was provided about the dimensions of the mound; the drawing [Kosay-Vary 1964:pl.II-III] and the photographs indicate that it is not a big mound. The publications reveal that it has been severely damaged by the villagers as a result of removal of stone and earth. |
| Destruction Details: The settlement has been severely destructed. Village houses were built on its slopes and skirts except for the northern skirt. The mound has been cut by a deep cleft in the southwest-northeast axis [TAYEx 27.6.2003]. |
