A ruined and partly overgrown Thracian fortified residence some 2 km southwest of Brodilovo. The site was probably the seat of a Thracian local ruler, and may be associated with the Kaleto fortress to its south and the tumulus to its southeast. The fortified residence was destroyed by fire. The ruins yielded finds from ceramic vessels, weapons, jewelry, and silver tetradrachms minted by Maroneia, Odessos, and Thasos. The site is dated to the 2nd century BC.
