The archeological site around Belsk, including necropolis, comprises about 80 km², and the fortifications enclose some 40 km². The fortified settlement of Gelonus was reached by the Persian army of Darius in his assault on Scythia during the 5th century BC, already burned to the ground, the Budni having abandoned it before the Persian advance.The remains of walls up to 12 metres are visible today.
