This cluster of burials is located in a somewhat isolated area, 2.71km southeast (bearing 141°) of Tsaghkahovit fortress (map quad B5i).
These burials were identified on the southern slope of a small conical rise which guards the southern edge of a small elevated basin. The hill is highly eroded with exposed areas of natural bedrock that partially obscure visibility in the area. In addition, piles of stones near the base of the hill related to the clearance of an adjacent field make the identification of some burials quite tentative.
This small cluster, no more than 50m north-south and 60m east-west, includes standard and perhaps mounded cromlechs. While the standard cromlechs are most clearly visible near the middle of the hill slope, possible mounded cromlechs were identified only near the base of the slope, where the cluster meets the edge of a cultivated field. Even though the mounds of tuff and basalt cobbles and, occasionally, larger stones, do not look like modern field piles, neither are they clearly cromlechs since the outer circle is partially submerged in most cases. The visible standard cromlechs are 3-6m in diameter and constructed of medium-sized, unworked, or shaped basalt blocks set in a ring around a center occupied by 1-3 basalt capstones.
