The burial mound stands 7 meters high and has an overall diameter of approximately 18 meters. After the removal of the stone covering, a burial chamber measuring about 6 meters in length and 2 meters in width was uncovered, extending from the southwest to the northeast. The chamber was symmetrically covered with large stone slabs.<br \/>\nThe burial chamber was divided into two sections. In the southwestern section, a sacrificial altar was found containing large and medium-sized black-polished pottery vessels, including jugs and cups adorned with chevron and \u201cnail\u201d motifs. Additionally, the remains of various large and small domesticated horned animals were discovered, indicating ritual offerings. A divider made of hackberry wood separated the altar from the primary burial.<br \/>\nIt is believed that an individual of high social status was laid to rest on a wooden platform in the northeastern section of the chamber. The platform was bordered on all four sides with wooden beams. Beside the skeletal remains, a bronze sword, the bronze tip of a scabbard, arrowheads made of obsidian and flint, and a well-preserved lidded jar were found. Among the burial artifacts, beads made of carnelian and faience were discovered, along with a cylindrical seal, which was widely used in the Ancient Near East at the time.<br \/>\n<div class=\"gallerify-container\"><div class=\"gallerify\" data-allowfullscreen=\"true\" data-nav=\"thumbs\" data-keyboard=\"true\"  data-autoplay=\"false\" data-trackpad=\"false\" data-ratio=\"800\/500\" data-width=\"96%\"><img src=\"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/SARIYOXUS-KURQAN-1-1.jpg\" width=\"341\" height=\"335\" alt=\"\" data-skip-lazy=\"\" \/>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Sariyoxus-2-sayli-kurqan-1-scaled.jpg\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" alt=\"\" data-skip-lazy=\"\" \/>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/DJI_0205-1-scaled.jpg\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" alt=\"\" data-skip-lazy=\"\" \/>\n<\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Sariyokhush Deresi Kurgan No. 2<br \/>\nLocation: Jeyranchol, Keshikchidagh Kurgan Valley<br \/>\nDate of Discovery: 15.06.2021 \u2013 30.07.2021<br \/>\nPeriod: Late Bronze \u2013 Early Iron Age (Khojaly-Gedebey Culture)<br \/>\nSar\u0131yoxu\u015f D\u0259r\u0259si Kurgan No. 2 is situated approximately 20 m&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12521,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[56],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12533"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12533"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12533\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14288,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12533\/revisions\/14288"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12533"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12533"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keshikchidagh-heritage.az\/en_US\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12533"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
