Association

Ma Canal 15 is 2.93km southwest (bearing 253°) of Hnaberd fortress, just 250m southeast (bearing 158°) of Ma Reservoir 3 (map quadrant B2f). It is adjacent to Ma Canal 6, just 100m to the south, of which it is perhaps a continuation.

Topography

This canal is set, somewhat unusually, on the top of a triangular promontory, framed on both the west and east sides by steep ravines.

General Description

This canal trace is oriented north-south and cuts a path through eroded bedrock outcrops toward Ma Reservoir 1. There is no evidence of construction and the linear depression of the trace is visible only over a course of 15-20m. It is 1.4m wide and varies in depth between 0.5 and 0.9m.
