Ts BC 95 was found 0.43km southwest (bearing 204°) of Ts Settlement 2 and 2.95km south (bearing 188°) of Tsaghkahovit fortress, the most southerly burial cluster within the Tsaghkahovit survey quadrant (map quad B4g).
These burials are set on the northern edge of a triangular promontory bordered by watercourses on the east and west flanks. The area is relatively flat, sloping slightly to the south, and free of boulders or outcrops.
Ts BC 95 occupies an area approximately 114m north-south by 100m east-west. Within this territory the burials appear to be quite discrete and evenly distributed. However, many are highly submerged leaving only glimpses of stone perimeters or large capstones so it is difficult to provide an overall assessment of the styles and sizes represented here. It is clear that both standard and bedrock style cromlechs can be found in this cluster, but it is likely that other styles are also present.
No surface materials.
Feature 1: is one of only a handful of burials where a large segment of the outer ring is visible. The cromlech is slightly oblong, or even rectilinear, 5.5m east-west and 4.5m north south. The outer ring is built of large, shaped basalt boulders. On the western side of the burial a large basalt slab appears to define the end of the interior chamber, as does a similarly shaped stone on the north side. However, the remainder of the interior of the construction is submerged below the surface. It is possible that this burial was robbed which would explain the visibility of the chamber stones.
