This cluster is found just 100m south of Ts BC 8, 0.97km east of Tsaghkahovit village (map quad B4o).
These burials are set on a gentle slope, at the edge of a small basin surrounded by denuded rock outcrops to the north, south, and east. To the west, the basin slopes down into the drainage that connects Ts reservoirs 1 and 2 to the area of Tsaghkahovit village.
Ts BC 9 consists of 5 broadly spaced kurgans. All consist of low mounds built along the gentle slope of the hill. The tallest mound rises approximately 1.4m above the surrounding terrain. The kurgans vary in diameter from 4 to 6.5m in diameter. The visible surfaces of the mounds is constructed of basalt and tuff cobbles. The diminished size of the kurgans suggests within traditional typologies that these kurgans potentially date to the early LB rather than the MB.
No surface materials.
Feature 1: is a moderately size kurgan, 5.2m in diameter, that rises 1.1m above the slope at its maximum height. The surface of the kurgan is covered by densely packed tuff and basalt cobbles with no visible encircling cromlech.
