Dating to the 4th-3rd millennia BC, the site covers approximately 0.8 hectares and preserves cultural layers from both the Eneolithic period and the Kura-Araxes culture [1]. Archaeological finds include obsidian remains, chaff-faced and chaff-tempered pottery, and combed-surface ceramics typical of the Late Chalcolithic of the Nakhchivan region [1]. The monument has been significantly damaged by agricultural activity [1].
