A monumental discovery has emerged from the windswept plains of Ceyranchol in western Azerbaijan: a 3,800-year-old Middle Bronze Age kurgan, believed to be the burial site of a towering warrior, has been unearthed during the “Scientific-Archaeological Excavations and Summer School-5 at Keshikchidagh” project.

This groundbreaking excavation is part of a long-standing joint initiative between the Cultural Heritage Protection, Development and Restoration Service under the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology of ANAS (Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences).
