This burial was found 5.23km southeast (bearing 202°) of Kolgat settlement 1 (map quad D2j).

Topography

The burial is set on the western crest of a ridge descending the eastern flank of Mt. Kolgat.

General Description

This place includes a single burial constructed of piled basalt and tuff cobbles. It appears to be a relatively recent (medieval or later) construction. While similar in construction to the piles of cobbles that mark earlier kurgans, this burial is laterally distended along the north-south axis and has little accumulated overburden. Possibly Islamic?

Features & Materials

The tomb is 0.98m east-west, 1.35m north-south and mounded to a height of 0.35m above the surrounding terrain.
