This mound stands on a promontory and features an oval platform measuring 12x10 meters. Surrounding the platform is a defensive embankment that is 0.8 meters high and 6.5 meters wide, with its highest point on the western side reaching 5 meters in height and 23 meters in width. The surface of the embankment is covered with stones, and the slopes are steep, reaching heights of 14 to 15 meters. Due to the structure of the slopes, the embankment is eroded in three places. This mound is covered by a mixed forest. On the western slope of the mound, an ancient settlement can be found within an area of 0.7 hectares, where decorated and rough pottery fragments, as well as remnants of slag, have been discovered. Dating of the mound indicates that it was in use from the 1st millennium until the 13th century.
