Description: This ancient cemetery is located 500 m east of Kashi Qalat at the foot of the southern slop of the rocky outcrop. The cemetery has been destroyed by water erosion. The tombs covered with rubble-stones have prevented their complete destruction. At present the tombs look like small conical hillock with a stony cap. Without excavation no archaeological material can be associated for certain with these tombs, but according to the local context this cemetery might be dated form the 3rd millennium BCE and correlated to the settlement of Kashi Qalat.
