This place is located 0.47km due west (bearing 270°) of Tsilkar fortress. It is the westernmost of the Gegharot survey quadrant clusters.
GE BC 13 lies on a southwest facing slope, on a ridge outlined by deep gullies. Very little soil remains on the ridge and as a result the remaining portions of cromlechs are hard to discern amongst the rather barren field of exposed bedrock.
Heavy erosion has obscured the number and extent of this cluster. Only 6-10 burials were identified across 210m of the exposed ridge top. The tombs that remain are primarily small constructions, between 1.5m and 4m in diameter. Standard, mounded, and bedrock styles are all found here but in some cases it is unclear if taphonomic processes may have severely altered their form (e.g., erosion of mound leaves only a standard cromlech).
No surface materials.
Feature 1: is a small mounded cromlech approximately 1.5m in diameter. The outer ring of stones, constructed of slightly worked granite blocks is clearly visible only on the down slope portion where the mound has eroded. The mound survives on the upslope half of the cromlech, obscuring the outer ring. No capstones are visible.
