Association

The easternmost of the Sahakaberd Quadrant burial clusters, Sk BC 2 is located 0.38km west (bearing 253°) of Ts BC 89, its nearest neighbor (map quad B4e).

Topography

Sk BC 2 was found amongst denuded bedrock and large eroding boulders atop a north-south oriented ridgeline. To the west, the terrain flattens considerably as Mt. Aragats retreats slightly southward.

General Description

Only 10 cromlechs were detected in this cluster, but many more may well be obscured by the eroded bedrock of the ridge. All those recorded were standard cromlechs, approximately 3m-5.5m in diameter.
