Sk BC 10 was discovered 0.18km east (bearing 110°) of Sahakaberd Fortress, 0.36km west of the military road. Sk BC 11 lies on the opposite bank of a small drainage, on the eastern flank of Sahakaberd and it is quite possible that this cluster was once part of the same mortuary complex (map quad B3l).
It is quite remarkable that the burials of Sk BC 10 lie undisturbed as they rest on a gentle northwest-facing slope, between the main military road and Sahakaberd fortress (which itself bears numerous scars of abuse by military forces). And yet this cluster appears to be in relatively good condition, set on the eastern bank of a steady flowing creek, and partially submerged.
This cluster consists of a single ribbon of densely packed cromlechs, 56m long and 2.5-3.5m wide. The burials are exclusively paved cromlechs set single-file and overlapping such that it is difficult to assess the diameter of any individual burial. The ribbon does not extend in a straight line but rather meanders roughly south to north.
